CS4185 FILM FESTIVAL PRACTICUM

Film Festival Practicum (Perspectives Film Festival) gives students the skills and hands-on experience of organizing a curated film festival. A curated festival is one where the programmers select a group of films that best fit the festival theme. Perspectives' overarching programming theme focuses on cinematic breakthroughs. The concept of breakthroughs is broadly interpreted and can mean films that were cinematic best or first examples either historically, technically, artistically, conceptually or narratively. Breakthroughs can also be interpreted to mean films that aim to change the status quo in their form and/or content. Entrance to the course is by application only. It is open to all students at NTU who have demonstrated skill sets either through coursework, relevant CCAs or on-the-job experiences.
