This course will look at creative and experimental approaches to sound in cinema and moving image practices. We will look at traditional and experimental practices with sound elements in film including soundtracks, soundscapes, sound design, sound libraries, experimental scores, live accompaniment, and other building blocks of cinematic sound. Things such as noise, off-screen space, diegetic and non-diegetic sound, visual representations of sound, closed and open captions for the Deaf and hard of Hearing and other sonic building blocks will be creatively explored, constructed and turned inside out to think anew about the politics of sound and what is possible when working with sonic mediums. Students will work on creative sound installation and film projects grounded in historical and contemporary approaches to aurality and listening.
