CM 359 - Short Film

Institution:

Arcadia University

Subject:

Communications

Description:

Short film is an undefined but highly ubiquitous category in world cinema. It is often measured for its length but also for its brevity as well as for its expansive and flexible reach. This course is a thorough examination of this art form, as old as cinema itself, and as expansive as cinema around the globe. This broad survey includes some classic works, the Academy Award winning films, achievements of European cinema, various new formats within short film (anthology film, DVD compilations, etc.), and the forceful re-emergence of this art form on the Internet. The course includes extensive viewing, comprehensive journal entries, research and writing on films.
