Technology is embedded across the lifecycle of creative change-making, from ideation to construction to sharing. 4D Studio: Tales of the City (Hybrid) will engage students in learning new technologies, using technology to explore the city and tell the stories of San Francisco. It is vital that students are responsible for understanding the digital tools and becoming engaged in the dialogue of our digital culture. In 4D Core Studios, students investigate interactive media, storytelling, diverse cultural contributions, personal and public actions, and social connections. Students also explore collaboration and current events along with technological processes, digital tools, and sequence structure in varied interdisciplinary forms. All 4D courses emphasize designating roles in team projects and time management. Formal properties include image relationships in time, composition in frame, appropriation, image transformation, editing, interactivity, performance, and presentation strategies.  4D Studio: Tales of the City will help students build skills such as digital video, sound, image and sequencing images, and public interventions. All 4D courses emphasize information literacy, including methods of field research for studio practice, and digital literacy such as professional file management skills.  Lectures and demonstrations for this hybrid 4D Studio course will be delivered online. Required online synchronous meeting times are listed as the meeting pattern for this course section. Additional course components will be delivered outside, and in-person, to give students the skills necessary for a site responsive making practice.

• A student enrolled in a hybrid course can only meet the in-person requirements with physical presence by participating in outdoor location based study and the recording using 4D technologies in and around CCA’s San Francisco campus. 
• The in-person component is integral to successful completion of the course. 
• All students enrolled in the hybrid course are subject to the same in-person requirements. Students that are unable to meet the in-person requirements of the course should be enrolled in an online only course.
