 Parody on Citizen Kane by Jason Ross The cinema studies emphasis allows for sustained work in the critical analysis of film and video. Students concentrate on historical and theoretical approaches to understanding film/video production and reception and how these media intersect with the larger culture. Focus is on developing strong critical thinking and writing skills. The cinema studies emphasis is designed for students who are primarily interested in the non-productin aspects of film and video. It is also recommended for students seeking solid academic preparation for graduate studies in film and video, cultural studies, or related fields.
