Covenant READY CAMERA ONE

The focus of READY CAMERA ONE is on visual literacy, television production, performance and media criticism. During each quarter we will deepen our understanding of multi-camera production technique, attempting to create a supportive ensemble of peers who ultimately will be producing large-scale and work in series for the viewing public. There is an expectation that all students and faculty will function as co-learners in this first program supported by and connected to Evergreen’s new Center for Creative and Applied Media.

• To attend all program activities on time and prepared to participate, whether that involves collaborating, facilitating, speaking, creating, moving, viewing or discussing. I will contact my faculty in advance if I am to be absent.

• To accept responsibility for my work by reading or viewing assigned texts by the date designated in the syllabus and completing all assignments on time and with integrity, giving credit to those whose ideas I use or whose words I quote.
