CREATIVE MEDIA AND FILMCreative Media and Film (CMF) teaches students to create and critique stories made with moving images and audio. CMF’s foundation rests on the critical view that you should be empowered to tell your own distinctive, idiosyncratic, and regional stories, rather than have those stories told for you. In the CMF major, you'll develop a critical understanding of the social, cultural, and political functions of media production and gain a strong foundation to either pursue a career in media or to go on to graduate school to earn a master's degree in filmmaking, documentary, cinema, media, or cultural studies.
