Film

Work with a unique medium – combining visual, auditory, and narrative elements – to tell a story and explore the diversity of human experience. Produce and direct your own creations, edit film and video, or take your understanding of the visual arts into a creative career in graphic design, social media, or digital advertising.

Film courses at SPSCC will walk you through every aspect of filmmaking, from pre- to post-production, using state-of-the-art digital photography, audio, and editing equipment with the guidance of experienced, working filmmakers.

What’s Different at SPSCC?

Connect with the local creative community. Participate in the annual Olympia Film Festival, hosted by the Olympia Film Society, and witness guest speakers, special performances, educational panels, and workshops.

Meet distinguished artists. Our Artist & Lecture Series brings scholars, outspoken activists, and passionate artists to speak and perform on campus each year.

Show your talent. Reveal your films in the quarterly Student Film Showcase, organized and publicized by students of the film program. Students’ best work is displayed for the community on the main stage of the Kenneth J. Minnaert Center for the Arts.
