Description

This course will encourage students to become more engaged consumers of visual culture. In an increasingly sophisticated visual environment, both TV and Film require sharp eyes and critical minds to observe, digest and critically process the incalculable amount of information we absorb visually. Even though TV and Film are two different forms of communication, this course will focus on establishing a foundation of heightened awareness that students can apply to various forms of visual communication beyond TV and Film.
