This course aims to give students the creative insight to practice, theorize, and analyze various avant-garde techniques within different media forms and different creators whose work is pivotal within this field. By studying a wide variety of directors and artists, and experimental practice in a studio environment, students will better understand how working outside of cinematic or narrative conventions can proactively engage with the filmic medium and media art.
