She was okay, nothing special but also not terrible. A lot of work goes into this course although it is also a very informative course, especially for those interested in film and production!The work makes you a better film student, that's for sure. She also put her slides on canvas which was SUPER HELPFUL! and the slides all contained lots of infoRate My Professors ↗
There are only 3 graded assignments and 2 exams so it is easy to not put the necessary work into the class. The tests and projects are fair, but graded rather strictly. The topics are very interesting and the professor is helpful and a great lecturer, but don't take this class for an easy A.Rate My Professors ↗
Professor B is a great! She is hilarious during lectures and tries to make jokes. Some of the screening are tiring, but overall do not miss them because they appear on the test. Take notes in discussion to help recall things on the tests. Only 2 exams and just study and it will be fine. Lecture sometimes go fast, but they are online.Rate My Professors ↗
Don't skip the screenings; they're the only class that counts for attendance aside from discussions. The final paper is graded harshly, but the professor is amazing. She's very much in love with what she does and that shows. Her enthusiasm is infectious even if you don't care for the subject you'll at least love her.Rate My Professors ↗
talks way to fast and does not put enough information on the slidesRate My Professors ↗
Good professor overall, very caring, post every slide onto Canvas. VERY helpful during office hours. TA's grading can be harsh, especially on the sole paper, but hey ho at least he is helpful and gives me a lot of suggestions. Don't expect this to be an easy A/AB class though.Rate My Professors ↗
