    Session Cycle: Fall and Spring Yearly Cycle: Annual In this course, students learn about music as an expressive art form. Part of the course is dedicated to "hearing" music, where students build a vocabulary of terms for describing music and expanding their ability to appreciate a diverse body of sounds. Learning terms, such as timbre, melody, harmony, as well as indigenous vocabularies, and listening to musical examples are central components of this course. In addition to hearing music, students also study the cultures of music, which includes understanding different conceptions of aesthetics, traditions, values, politics, and other areas of society that inform the composition and performance of music. Through listening to and learning about music in many parts of the world, students will better appreciate diverse ways of hearing sound and expressing culture. 3.000 Credit Hours 3.000 Lecture hours Levels: Undergraduate Schedule Types: Lecture College of Arts and Sciences Undergraduate Division English and Cultural Studies Department Course Attributes: Cultural Mode of Thought, Global Studies, Humanities Survey English/Hum, Humanities Survey Course, International Focus, International Studies, Liberal Arts Elective, Literary and Cultural Studies, Lit and Cultural Studies Minor

    Prerequisite: LCS121 Session Cycle: Fall and Spring Yearly Cycle: Annual This course has three major aims: to introduce students to what might be called the language of film - the techniques used by filmmakers to tell their stories - to investigate the relationship between movies and culture, and to consider film as both an art form and a global business. We will examine the tools filmmakers employ to bring their works to the screen, including cinematography, production design, acting, editing, music, and sound design, and narrative structure. We will also focus on how the cinema both reflects and perpetuates aspects of culture, investigating the images of masculinity, femininity, class, and race relations we find there. By semester's end students should have a much clearer sense of what goes into making of movies, and should have become a much more active, critical viewer of the films they see. This course is cross-listed with COM350, Studies in Film and Video. Students that receive credit for ECS350, Studies in Film and Video cannot receive credit for this course. 3.000 Credit Hours 3.000 Lecture hours Levels: Undergraduate Schedule Types: Lecture College of Arts and Sciences Undergraduate Division English and Cultural Studies Department Course Attributes: Communication Concentration, Communication Minor, English & Cult.
