Course Code: MVAMT12
One of our province’s top areas of employment is the film industry. In this grade 12 course, students will explore film aesthetics, and a variety of genres, from action to documentary and the “Hollywood” format. Students will be producing several film projects, from commercials to action scenes to final “student choice”, and learn skills of preproduction, such as storyboarding and scriptwriting, and post production skills such as computer editing and sound tracking. Projects will include experimental, documentary, scriptwriting, special effects editing, a project for a client, and a “student’s choice” final project. Students in Media Arts 12 who have taken Media Arts 11, are encouraged to explore film making in areas of their own interests. Students are encouraged to enter work in one or more film festivals.
