The VCFA Graphic Design program invites you to a dynamic, cross-disciplinary workshop with writer and photographer Holly Willis. "This workshop invites participants to consider creative approaches to their writing practice using techniques borrowed from filmmakers. We will view a series of short films, derive their specific processes, and then use these to imagine new ways to compose. Combining viewing, discussion, and short writing prompts, the workshop offers a playful approach to writing both fiction and nonfiction." Holly Willis is a writer and photographer who teaches at the School of Cinematic Arts at USC. Her writing moves across arts journalism, creative nonfiction, poetry, and academic prose, and her photography explores the materiality of the image in a digital world. She has published two books about cinema, edited two collections of essays related to new media, and contributed to a variety of journals, from Variety to River Teeth and carte blanche. She is interested in artworks that investigate the interstices. This workshop is open to all VCFA programs. https://vcfa.edu/event/writing-with-film-workshop/ (fb)
