Building on FILM-ST 411, this course is an advanced workshop in 16mm single-camera filmmaking, emphasizing experimental formal approaches, hand-processing, eco- friendly film chemistry, printing, color film, tinting and toning techniques, sound technologies, telecine and digitalization techniques, and digital-analog hybrid processes, with the goal of presenting a final work in a curated screening at the end of the semester. A previous 16mm course (FILM-ST 411, HACU-0249, or FAMS-335) or instructor permission are prerequisite. This course is intended for students interested in pursuing upper-level creative production and advanced coursework in analog film, especially toward completion of the Certificate or Major in Film Studies.
