FAMS 335 Green Screen-Film and Environment

This course is an exploration of the intersections between filmmaking and the environment. We will employ critical concepts from cinema studies and ecocriticism/ecomedia to investigate diverse cinematic representations of the non-human world, the human place within the natural world, and larger environmental issues, class discussions based on weekly film screenings and relevant readings, blog work and recursive paper writing, plus students make their own short environmental films, which we will screen at semester's end.
