Students also learn the principles of digital editing. This course is a more demanding section of FMI 101 incorporating student-led investigations of media literacy and the power of individual shots and cuts to affect the resultant narrative. Students in the honors section also examine the historical and cultural contexts of the contemporary state of moving-image storytelling in depth. The course includes studio and lecture.
