Film classes
FTV 4: Introduction to Art and Technique of Filmmaking
Fall 2020I created a storyboard for Vertigo. I also edited a scene from Before Sunrise to see the difference between adding sound and leaving a scene silent, and what mood each can induce. It was only a slight change, but it made a great difference in the scene.
FTV 33: Introductory Screenwriting
Winter 2021I wrote a 15-page script, Knots. Logline: a commitment-phobic and indecisive girl navigates the world and her identity, but familial expectations cause her to make unsavoury decisions.
FTV 106C: Asian, African and Latin American Film
Spring 2021I wrote a five-page paper on how cinema, so often tied to modernization, challenges the simple opposition between the traditional and the modern. I compared Deepa Mehta’s Fire and Ousmane Sembene’s Xala.
FTV 183B: Producing II, Entertainment Economics
