Junior & Senior Projects
Junior Project
The Junior Projects (completed in MP-383) require students to work together in small crews to make a 16mm sound film from conception to answer print. The purpose of the junior project is to provide the film student familiarity with all production and post-production processes and techniques, as well as all lab procedures.
Senior Project
The Senior Project (MP-481) generally requires the independent production of a significant film or video project in the capacity of director, producer, cinematographer, or art director, or the writing of a feature-length script. The purpose of this project, required of all B.F.A. candidates, is to provide the graduating senior with a thesis project and to serve as a culmination of the student's four years of study. The amount of work required on these two projects can be considerable. Successful projects are then screened in the Big Lens Festival, an event sponsored by the department, but run by students.
