Abstract

Project Title: A Spanish Noir Short Film
Students: Kyle Hendershot, Jack Kubicki, Chase Leaders, Kati Molnar, and Tyler Wake
Mentor: Dr. Eva Paris-Huesca

Our group is working on a short film that plays with the formulas of noir and detective fiction. The goal of this creative work is to put into practice and show our mastery of the distinguishing elements of this filmic genre learned throughout the semester, in terms of plot and character development, as well as visual aesthetics. This project also involves the creation of an original script in Spanish. After the completion of the short film we will write a final paper in Spanish to reflect on our individual work and experience.
