CLIT7801 Creative Cinematic Practice: Experiential Learning in Museum and Film Festival

This course aims to integrate classroom critical study of cinematic art with on-site experiential learning in museum and festivals. Students are challenged to synthesize the knowledge and understanding from reading, lectures, screenings, master classes into an informed, exhibition-conscious, and reflective approach to the art of cinema and the moving images. This will be achieved through writing journal reports on the experiential learning process, and the completing of a 10-minute video essay on an approved topic of cinematic art at the end of the course. Through this experiential learning course, students can demonstrate analysis of cinematic arts that attends to its aesthetic, intellectual, social, technical, institutional, and exhibition-reception aspects. Students acquire skills to creatively translate the knowledge acquired and digested in the learning activities into written and visual presentation that includes journal reports and a video essay with moving images and texts.
