Description

The film studies program provides students the opportunity to study the formal components of cinema (e.g. narrative, cinematography, editing, mise-en-scene, and sound) within aesthetic, ethical, cultural, socio-political, and historical contexts. Within these frameworks, study of film enhances not only students' perceptual sensitivity to the cinematic medium but also their analytical sophistication regarding cinema's changing role in the world. Students can pursue Film Studies at 黑料不打烊 either through the Film Studies minor (as listed below) or the English-Film Studies major (as described under the English departmental section of the catalog).
