(18 credits)

This minor offers opportunities to study a powerful contemporary and historical form of communication and expression: the moving photo - graphic image. Courses consist of interdisciplinary approaches to the analysis of film and media, covering works from the silent period to the present, from the U.S. and other nations, and from “mainstream” and “alternative” groups. Students learn the art, history, technology, economics, and theory of cinema and media, while also learning the language for analyzing such texts’ forms and practices.
