Content

Campus Cinéma consists of two parts: a theoretical component and a practical component.
The course is linked to the ‘Possédé·e·s – Passionné·e·es’ symposium organised by JF de Hasque and F. Laugrand, members of the Laboratory of Prospective Anthropology. The films made last year are screened in the mornings; students are invited to attend the screenings and discussions, which take place over two days. The symposium is held in early December; attendance is optional and is decided by the student and their tutors depending on their timetable.

Teaching methods

In terms of teaching methods, the Campus Cinéma course combines various types of interactive teaching activities: reflection, debates, discussions, practical projects, analysis, etc. Students are therefore expected to participate actively in order to foster a productive and collaborative atmosphere during seminar sessions. Furthermore, the course includes a practical component involving the production of a short film (see above).

Evaluation methods

The assessment consists of submitting the film produced individually or as part of a team. The film must be submitted during the June examination session (the exact date will be specified in Q2) via WeTransfer, Vimeo or YouTube.
