Film
Daniel Giles
Film is a continuously evolving medium, both technologically and aesthetically. At CCS, the exploration of storytelling through film takes narrative, documentary and experimental forms.
The Program
With a grounding in history, theory, and technique, students write, plan, and direct their own video productions. They also explore the use of sound and light in visual storytelling. Graduates go on to be screenwriters, cinematographers, directors, editors, producers, sound designers, colorists, creative directors, VFX artists, studio owners, and more.
Possible Career Choices
Experiential Learning in Film
With our extensive industry connections spanning over a century, we ensure that the active learning our students engage in aligns with industry needs, preparing them for careers. Through hands-on experiences and reflection, students bridge classroom knowledge with real-world applications, both within and outside traditional classroom settings. Experiential learning opportunities are integrated into academic programs. Offered within courses or programs of study, these opportunities enable students to apply their knowledge through educational projects, partnerships, and placements.
