8.11.1 Academic Staff 8.11.2 Program Information
Film is the most important popular culture art form of the 20th century. Our knowledge and perception of the modern world is shaped by film or its related media — video and television. Film is a social, cultural, and historical document that in addition to being worthwhile for study as an artistic medium, also shares issues with philosophy, sociology, political studies, and other disciplines. Instructors include people who have made and written about films, who are well prepared to discuss film history, film as cultural artifacts and the connections between film and other disciplines.
