Studio Arts College International (SACI) is more than an opportunity to study abroad in the birthplace of the Renaissance: it’s an experience you will carry with you, in your career and throughout your life.
Accredited by the National Association of Schools of Art and Design (NASAD), SACI offers a wide range of innovative, hands-on graduate and undergraduate programs in traditional and contemporary studio arts, design, conservation, art history, and Italian language and culture.
Surrounded by the great masterpieces of another age and a lively community of contemporary artists, studying at SACI is not only an opportunity to discover what came before you, but to be part of a vibrant culture that is overflowing with artistic life.ARTC344 Video I, Basilio de San Juan Guerrero, Fall 2019
The course is designed to develop both technical and artistic skills using video as a creative imaging tool. During the term, students will have hands-on experience in pre-production, production, and post production. They will learn how to operate a video camera, how to light a subject and how to edit their video shooting on a non-linear editing system. They will also learn how to organize projects creating storyboards and scripts.
The course is divided into two parts: Initial language analysis and assignments to apply the knowledge acquired. The other part is production, which involves: producing, screenplay writing, cinematography, directing, art direction, sound and editing.
Finally, the students will produce a film that is 15 minutes or shorter, that will be screened during the school’s end-of term party. To do so, the students will learn techniques for translating their script into moving images as well as the creative and physical requirements for directing and producing a film.
Graduate Students
Students in MFA, MA, and Post-Bac programs are expected to complete additional assignments and to produce work at a level appropriate for students in a graduate program. They are graded accordingly and, if they successfully complete all course requirements for graduate students, receive graduate-level credit for the course.
