UCLA DESMA 172 STORYTELLING AND RESILIENCE

Storytelling is an act of resilience in response to change and adversity. This course examines the intersections of video, storytelling, and cultures of resilience. Through presentations, group discussions, virtual galleries and video links the students will conduct research and study artworks by diverse voices. Students will create a short mixed media video addressing a contemporary issue of their own choosing. This course is designed to help students develop a visual toolkit and a critical approach to the medium of the moving image.
