EVENTS:

Our annual Undergraduate Research Symposium showcases outstanding research papers of undergraduate students at the School of Theatre, Film & Television. Over the course of several days each April, the research paper presentations of student finalists are released and made available to view online at urs.tftv.arizona.edu. The event culminates in an award ceremony with cash prizes for the top three finalists in both Film & Television and Theatre.
In this 2020/21 Film & Television Senior Seminar run by Dr. Anna Cooper, each student chose their own topic in film and television studies and wrote a 20-page essay of innovative scholarship which they then translated into either a video presentation or a podcast segment. Projects built on the knowledge and skills gained throughout the BA in Film & Television, and topics ranged from fake news and the evolution of satirical news programs to hypersexuality in DC Superhero female characters to transnational filmmaking by Mexican directors.
