SOCI 389 seeks to investigate the representation of race, gender, and class in film, how it may change over time, and what the cultural and sociological implications of that representation are. The class focuses on critical analysis of representation in cinematic media and the interplay of it with prevailing public perception of specific groups. The culmination of this course is a group project consisting of a roughly 12 minute short video focused on analysis of representation of a particular group in film. In support of this final project, the DMC provided an in-class session on editing video in Adobe Premiere Pro.
