BFA Mission

The mission of the BFA is to prepare artists who will be competitive as independent filmmakers. To that end, a central aim of our curriculum is to help prepare students for advanced graduate degrees beyond the BFA degree.

In addition to acquiring the skills to make creative films and video works, students completing the BFA degree will also acquire the ability to analyze and interpret films critically and to communicate such interpretations competently in essay form.

Production Genres

Experimental Film

Narrative Film

Documentary

Animation

Students following the BFA track are strongly discouraged from taking three or more production focused classes per semester.
