CNPH 20000 - Practicum in Film Festivals

Institution:

Ithaca College

Subject:

Cinema and Photography

Description:

An opportunity to mix theory and practice. Students volunteer for at least five hours a week during the 10-week session for a media arts organization that offers public exhibitions in their communities (e.g. a film festival, an art cinema, a museum with curated programming, a public library with a film series). Every week they must file online, for the entire class to read, reports of their activities and analysis of the organization. Students also read books that provide historical, economic, theoretical, curatorial, and aesthetic background to exhibition practices both in the United States and internationally. Online discussions will integrate the theoretical/historical reading with the practical experience of working with a media arts organization. Students must coordinate their volunteer work themselves, and each must sign a contract between the organization, the professor, and him- or herself that outlines duties and time allotted. This is an online course. 3 credits. (Summer)
