Ithaca College – Film, Photography and Visual Arts

admin — Wed, 25 Aug 2010 06:17:47 +0000

DESCRIPTION

If you’re interested in the creative possibilities of the visual media, consider entering our bachelor of fine arts program. The film, photography, and visual arts program differs from the B.S. program in cinema and photography by adding coursework in the other fine arts. Rather than focusing on one specific medium, you’ll be encouraged to explore the whole spectrum of visual culture.

Beginning in your freshman year, you’ll take many of the same classes in photography and film production as cinema and photography majors (bring your own digital SLR camera and light meter), and you’ll spend as much time in the darkroom or at an editing station as they do. But you’ll also venture into the television studios for video production classes and trek over to the art studio for lessons in drawing.

ADVANTAGES

The Department of Cinema, Photography, and Media Arts boasts a faculty of nationally and internationally recognized artists, media makers, and scholars.

THINGS TO CONSIDER

You will receive grounding in required courses in media analysis and criticism. To round out your educational experience, you will choose from elective courses in related fields such as art and art history. But the real emphasis is on producing images — photographs, paintings, films, videos, and drawings.

FINANCIAL AID

Higher education is one of the best investments you can make for your future. The Office of Student Financial Services works in partnership with students and parents to help them realize their dream of a great Ithaca education.

SCHOLARSHIPS

Scholarships are given to select entering undergraduate students of exceptional academic ability and/or talent, regardless of their financial need. The awards are in recognition of superior academic achievement with the expectation of continuing pursuit of academic excellence. All incoming students are automatically considered for President’s, Dean’s, and ALANA Scholarships; no special application is necessary. ALANA Scholarship recipients must be members of an underrepresented group.

CERTIFICATIONS

Ithaca College is accredited by the Commission on Higher Education of the Middle States Association

SUMMARY

The B.F.A. program will test your ability to juggle projects, stay on deadline, and maintain your creative energies. The goal is to provide you with the skills and background you need to develop and express your creative vision, and develop career skills in multiple visual media.
