In this class, students will be equipped with the technical and artistic tools to conceptualize and produce their video works. We will work with cameras, light, sound, editing, and post-production, and each student will spend time developing a video project and/or video installation. Students will learn methodologies of how to translate and incorporate a wide range of artistic disciplines, on-line media, and performance within a video work. We will also study the contemporary practices of video art and filmmaking through screenings of video works by John Acomfrah, Hito Steyerl, Isaac Julien, Camille Henrot, Anri Sala, Omer Fast, and Ryan Trecartin.

Both an introductory class, and ongoing lab, for producing monotypes. Monotypes are one-offs. They are made by applying ink, color, or other materials to a plate, and then using a press to print the prepared plate onto paper, canvas, or other surface. This printed surface becomes the work of art. The plate contains no features that will impart any qualities to successive prints.
