During the summer faculty-led Experiential Learning Lab, students will conduct field research and complete their short projects under the mentorship of the faculty director. The independent work may be a creative or research project of their own choosing—a short film or screenplay, a creative or scholarly essay or oral project—that engages with a particular aspect of the city in the manner of the work we examined in the spring. The summer portion of the course will also feature field trips with JHU faculty to film sites, screening events, film archives, and other Los Angeles landmarks; and workshops on screenwriting, producing, and directing with JHU alumni. A networking event with alumni—including directors, writers, producers, and other creatives—will be a feature of the second week of the session, and alumni will be available for consultation, mentorship, and networking opportunities throughout the three-week course.
