Special Topics in Film and Digital Media Production: Experimenting with Small Media

In this workshop-style production class we will experiment with the idea of small file media. Massive files, and digital trash are filling up our hard drives and the data clouds. This media production course explores the environmental impacts of media consumption and attempts to offer a solution through practice. How can we create with less space, with smaller resolutions and less data ? This class offers the opportunity to experiment with making films and media works that can travel light on the Internet. Leave your giant hard drives at home and let’s experiment with the politics and aesthetics of low resolutions.
