Course Objective and Content

Course Objectives:	The course provides students with a basic understanding of the principles of visual culture. Moreover, the course aims to explore the artistic and theoretical dimensions of visual culture and it allows students to acquire the critical methods necessary to evaluate cinematography and visual expression aesthetically.
Course Content:	This course is a course about seeing and about how images are constructed to work with and against the way we see. It is especially designed for people who want to share their personal artistic vision with others through image making (still or moving), but it can benefit anyone with an interest in expanding creativity (especially poets, writers, visual artists, and theater artists).

Learning Outcomes

The students who have succeeded in this course;
1) Dissect and interpret works of art and writings on the visual art field
2) Communicate ideas visually through photographs and moving images
3) Discuss and defend their work verbally and give constructive feedback to others in group critiques.
