Professors Glenda Drew and Jesse Drew will co-lead this program in Dublin, Belfast, Galway and Cork, Ireland. We will explore the concepts and practices of documentary media production focusing on the use of video and new media tools to illustrate social issues and promote international understanding. Students will utilize basic video, sound, lighting, and computer software as they develop a short documentary project on Ireland. Completed work will be exhibited publicly and hosted on a Documentary Ireland video website. Students will be required to keep a written journal of their experiences and to complete a collection of short essays.
