Subject:

Communication

Description:

This faculty-led travel course takes students abroad to co-create short documentary films with local changemakers who are solving problems in their own communities. Students spend the first seven weeks on campus doing preproduction planning and equipment training. They then travel over Spring Break to meet the changemakers, shoot all the footage they need, and engage with local history, culture, and nature before returning to campus to edit the films over the last seven weeks. Learning objectives include production skills, cross-cultural understanding, and collaborative media advocacy techniques. There are no language or production prerequisites for this course.
