Students can take classes in film studies such as classic Hollywood, experimental, and world cinema as well as production, including 16mm film and digital filmmaking. The film major provides a thorough grounding, balancing instruction in the creation of films and videos with courses in the history, aesthetics, and cultural import of these arts. The culmination of the major is a senior project cons

isting of a creative and/or research project. The major can be applied to careers in film and television, the visual arts, teaching, advertising, public relations, publishing, and others. Production classes in film/video are small and are conducted in a supportive atmosphere that emphasizes personal, creative development and technical mastery of craft. Students have many opportunities to exhibit and screen their work to the campus and general public. Students can take classes that study classic Hollywood cinema, experimental cinema, and world cinema, as well as an array of courses that examine the films of individual directors, such as Ingmar Bergman or Alfred Hitchcock. The curriculum is supplemented by visiting scholars and filmmakers who screen their work at Hollins. Each Short Term, majors participate in internships that provide practical experience on film productions or in the television industry.
