Studio Art 298. Experimental Courses
Animated Ojects
This course explores variations of the constructed cinematic object and the engagement of the human body as an active participant in the cinematic space. A series of guided exercises explore animation and the (de/re)construction of sequential image, the context of the projected image and light, optical machines, environment and location, and identities of transmission and reception. The course includes lectures, demonstrations, project workshops and studio practice. Emphasis is placed upon the conceptual, material, practical and creative approaches to reconsidering and re-making what animation is and can be. The course culminates with final projects.
Attendance and participation are crucial, both for your individual success as well as for the class as a whole.
Prior animation experience is not necessary.
