First termDesmet Robbrecht | Grunditz Brennan Kersti | N. Content
Physical Editing is an advanced-level course, applying choreographic tools to interpretating, composing and editing film material without dialogue, connecting questions of filmmaker perspective, ethics, interpretation, and viewer experience to concrete film practice.
Course description
The students explore movement based storytelling and choreography for the camera to deepen the understanding of how movement/dance/choreography is shaped through camera work and editing, physical editing.
The student also develops the ability to edit movement based storytelling. The course consists of film screenings, discussions on the students’ own practice in relation to the field as well as practical exercises individually and in groups. We will be watching, listening and editing (your own or material provided). How do we analyse what we do and have done? What does space, time, movement, rhythm and flow mean in the editing?
Preparations: Access to a computer with editing software of choice.
Suggested course literature: Cutting Rhythm - Intuitive film editing by Karen Pearlman
The course is structured in five modules, one per week - TIME, SPACE, MOVEMENT, RHYTHM & FLOW.
Each module is approached through lecture/workshops, one assignment discussed with class and a revision of the assignment.
Bring your own film material to work with in the assignments or use existing material provided by course leader.
