Overview of class

This course is the second in a three-quarter MFA thesis sequence in which students focus on creating a thesis project, whether a short film, an installation, a work of interactive media, or some other configuration. Principal photography or prototype construction should be finished by the start of the quarter so that students can engage primarily in post-production of the thesis project, with emphasis placed on transitioning from assemblage to refined structure and eventually ending in a rough cut or rough prototype. Throughout the course and according to a designated schedule, students will present works-in-progress for collective feedback and evaluation, which will follow a studio arts critique format. During class meetings, we will focus chiefly on work-shopping your projects, sharing and analyzing questions and concerns of post-production, considering a range of creative strategies, and, time permitting, engaging with assigned critical readings. Students will come out of the class with rough cut of their thesis, and ready to reach picture lock early in the Spring Quarter's Thesis 3 class
