Film and Literature
Have you always wondered what it would take to take a great story and put it on film, or at least on a memory card? In this class, you will learn to compare and contrast literature and movies, and go on to create a well-crafted movie. Starting with the most popular and shortest movies around, commercials, you will learn to appreciate great visual stories, and you will learn how much work goes into building something of value in both written and visual media.
