MEDA 316 - Super-8 Filmmaking

Institution:

Otis College of Art and Design

Subject:

Description:

In Super-8 Filmmaking, student will make films and study the history of a medium just recently being written. Since this history hasn't yet been institutionalized and fixed, and since the super-8 format remains rather stubbornly an "amateur" medium, (but not for long, as video has replaced the home movie, super-8 is being used by artists and professionals exclusively), it has the rare characteristic of not being responsible to the history of a form. Super-8, from the beginning of its use by artists, has rarely worried about filmmaking conventions, except to toy with them. Offered Spring semester only.
