This course will explore the history of the documentary film and theoretical approaches to interpreting its context, and allow students to engage in production by putting into practice methodologies they have studied through a series of seminar discussions, workshops and screenings. Students will research two topics (one assessed and one non-assessed) and work in teams to film them and utilize the Media Lab's facilities to complete the projects through post-production.
Information on contact teaching time is available from the course guide.
1st Attempt:
One non-assessed video project, which gives students an opportunity to hone their research and production skills before undertaking the second project, which is assessed.

Verbal in-class feedback, including peer feedback, will be provided on both the assessed and non-assessed projects to the production teams, and students are also asked to provide peer-review written feedback.
