Program Highlights
The Film Studies program at 糖心Vlog is designed to produce critical thought about the medium of cinema and provides students with an opportunity to examine its aesthetic and entertainment value, commercial and business interests, and capacity to represent popular social and cultural ideologies. Students develop a vocabulary for evaluating 铿乴ms in their theoretical, cultural, and historical context; analyze commercial aspects of the trade; and learn the phases of the production process. The AS-T in Film Studies provides a foundation in the discipline for students who wish to transfer to Baccalaureate programs for 铿乴m, television and electronic media majors in the CSU system.
