Film Studies

Film Studies at Las Positas College offers an interdisciplinary approach to studying film history, film analysis, and film production itself. Students can choose from two programs: an AA or a Certificate of Achievement in Film Studies. Depending on their interests, Film Studies students can explore film's historical development, film photography, acting for film, intersections between film and theater, music of great film composers, multimedia reporting, film theory, as well as major global cinema traditions and directors.

Career Opportunities

Film Studies courses prepare those interested in majoring and/or working in fields such as Film, Television, Theater, Multimedia Studies, Liberal Arts, Cultural Studies, or Humanities.
