In this course, students will discuss key questions and basic concepts of film directing. Students will practice and implement their knowledge and understanding, while producing and directing exercises throughout the semester, based on instructions they receive.  Students will screen their exercises in class and receive feedbacks (and criticism). During the semester, we will extend the discussion around the issues and dilemmas of filmmaking, emphasizing the stages of concept, pre-production and production. Additionally the students would develop their skills of analyzing films.
