WRITING ABOUT FILM: FOR THE YOUNG

Perception and appreciation of films in this time and age are necessary for the proliferation of the cinematic culture and experience. More or less, if we are touched, annoyed or intrigued by any film, we spend more time thinking and talking about it than the time of having to view it. Writing about Film: For the young is a specialized course for the young and old who are interested in interpreting, critiquing films for audiences who are of the youth sector. “Youth+Film” is the concept, process and realization of this workshop as a critical response to the increasing number of films/videos that are made and produced for/by the youth.

Facilitator Patrick Campos is a film/literary scholar, and a faculty member of the UP Film Institute, teaching courses such as Philippine Cinema, Language and Grammar of Film, Film Genres, and Film Theory and Criticism. He is also an award-winning independent filmmaker, a freelance writer, and a musical scorer.
