Cinema & Media Studies (CAMS) is devoted to the interdisciplinary study of film, radio, television, and the Internet. Courses focus on the histories and theories of photochemical, electronic, and digital media in addition to providing hands-on experience in digital video and audio production, screenwriting, digital photography and graphic design. Students pursuing a CAMS Major work closely with faculty members to devise an optimum program of study integrating creative and collaborative thinking, critical analysis, primary research and media production. A state-of-the-art Media Lab and production studio provides ready access to the same production tools used by professionals, including high-end Sony digital cameras and Final Cut Pro. Formal study in CAMS is supplemented by a rich array of media-oriented activities and opportunities, including a regular Off-Campus Study Program exploring New Media in New York and Europe, film screenings sponsored by the College Film Society and the Student Union Movie Organization (SUMO), and a variety of festivals and exhibitions for showcasing student work.
