영화 감상: 슈퍼히어로, 괴물, 모험, 공상과학, 판타지 등!

Are a huge fan of adventure, monster, fantasy, superhero and sci-fi films?  Are you looking for an environment to discuss your love for these films with your peers? Then this class is for you!  

Each class we'll discuss and analyze a different film (seek the schedule at the bottom of this section). We'll cover many of the following themes and concepts: story and character development, character motivations, script writing, film marketing, film development (casting, setting, practical effects, costumes, CGI, music and sound, etc.) and more.  Most importantly of all, I will make sure every student gets the chance to voice their opinions!

This is a highly-interactive, discussion-based class that encourages student engagement and conversation.  I will structure our discussion by going over a handful of topics pertinent to our given film that week, and also allow students the opportunity to bring their own discussion topics for that given film to the table as well.  I will build our ongoing schedule of films for the course, taking into account input from the students in each section. 

Please Note: 
This is an ongoing class, which means students are not required to join each and every week, nor it is necessary to have attended in previous weeks.  In other words, each class session will have a distinct film exclusive to that week that will guide our discussion. Every class stands alone, and therefore it is not necessary or required to attend for every session the course is offered.  In short, students can come and go as they please!   If there are any questions about this please don't hesitate to reach out.

Spoiler warning: unless you really don't mind having the entire story spoiled for you, make sure you watch the scheduled film in advance of each class!

*I will update regularly the films to be discussed for each week and each current section in the space below.  Please refer here for the latest information on what will be covered in each class.  As always, if there are any questions please let me know.
