The students are introduced to the different expressions of avant-garde film and the screening venues. The avant-garde film is put into historical and cultural context. In the course, the students will produce an individual, experimental film where they need to work independently and take full responsibility for their own film production and all its key roles. In the course, the students are encouraged to explore their own artistic expression.
With the understanding of Avant-garde filmmaking the student gains knowledge on how to think and create art independently.
