NEW FILMMAKERS FILM SCHOOL SCREENING SERIES presents an hour and a half program of short films from University of North Carolina, School of the Arts, School of Filmmaking students. These films were made in conjunction with the class The Image and Internal Time-Space continuum, taught by Julian Semilian and John LeBlanc. This class is an exploration of the moving image wrenched free of quotidian isolation. The students explore the expression of communication between external stimulus and internal response in series of visual and aural exercises designed to lead to the deeper awareness of how we shape and are shaped by images, engaging the student to enter the poetic timeline and create short works of artistic integrity.
