UNIVERSITY OF CALGARY Calgary, AB T2N 1N4 (403) 220-5421 Fax: (403) 284-0713 Chairman (Dept. of Drama): Prof. Douglas McCullough BFA Drama / BFA Secondary School Drama Saskatchewan UNIVERSITY OF REGINA Faculty of Fine Arts Department of Film & Video Regina, SK S4S 0A2 (306) 585-4796 Fax: (306) 585-4439 Programs Available The Department of Film & Video offers Programs leading to the degrees of BFA (film & video production), BA (film & video studies) & BA Honours (film & video studies). Overview Given its position within the Faculty of Fine Arts, the Department of Film & Video approaches its subject matter as a means of artistic and cultural expression. By focusing on the creative process, technology and the theoretical and critical analysis of film and video texts, the Department offers an environment that integrates the Studies and Production disciplines. Thus, the BA students gain both a practical and a theoretical understanding of the image-making process, and the BFA students benefit by having access to more than a simple production-oriented understanding of the same Process. Furthermore, the Department's mandate encourages students/artists to develop their own unique voice in their chosen medium, The result is that the program does not tum out a single style of image-making or critical thought, but rather allows for a great diversity of expression from the most avant-garde to the most mainstream. Bachelor of Arts (four-year) A traditional four-year liberal arts degree which allows students to develop the basic skills of analysis, problem solving, decision making and AWARDS/ FILM COURSES/ PUBLICATIONS 208 2000 FILM CANADA YEARBOOK 3444444444444 4444444eeee
