This course was organized to teach the aesthetics and fundamentals of motion and its application to design and media arts through an introduction of the basic concepts and tools for the design of moving images. In a series of assignments and a final group project, students explored principles and aesthetics of moving imagery including timing, pacing, repetition, editing, composition, resolution, process, and the link between sound and image. Class time included class discussions, student presentations, software and equipment tutorials and studio time for project development. Emphasis was placed on developing a coherent spoken and visual vocabulary and its integration with artistic concepts.
