Columbia College Chicago (Chicago, IL) – Directing Training For Auteurs Of Tomorrow
The Cinema Art and Science BFA allows its majors to specialize in one of eight areas: Directing, Cinematography, Cinema Visual Effects, Editing and Post-Production, Producing, Production Design, Screenwriting, and Sound for Camera.
For the Directing specialization, students will take courses covering cinema directing, acting, screenwriting, and script supervising. Optional courses include those dealing with lighting, editing, assistant directing, and directing comedy. The first year sees a two-pronged approach via Cinema Notebooks, a critical analysis course, and Cinema Image and Process, which focuses on applying theory to filmmaking technique. There’s also the chance to take an in-depth 15-week course in L.A. in your specialization.
