About Us
Cinematic Arts provides centralized coordination among the various Duke University departments and programs that provide classes, activities and opportunities for students interested in film studies and moving image practice.
Cinematic Arts faculty offer film studies courses from a global perspective, while Screen Society, our film exhibition program, makes available a range of historical and new works in a variety of genres and modes, from different national traditions.
Through production courses and our Filmcraft workshops, students can gain expertise in a wide range of technologies, from analog film production and cel animation to digital production, motion graphics, and 3-D animation. Students also have the opportunity to gain professional experience in related industries through internships and the Duke in Los Angeles and Duke in New York Programs, while the Duke Entertainment Media Arts Network connects students with careers and alumni in the field.
