Course objectives
The aim is to introduce students the principles of dramaturgy and how to select the screenplays for future AV works, including the background research and preparation of documents for the creation of the screenplays. Students will become familiar with the basic methodology and analytic tools for the screenplays in process (or finished screenplays). Psychological game: A group of students generates a collective cinematic story and participates in the creation of the screenplay. Analysis of students' independent work. This course acquaints the students with mathematical techniques necessary for understanding the basic course of physics.
