The M.A. program in cinema studies highlights important developments and movements in filmmaking. Special attention is given to social, cultural and political backgrounds that have influenced cinema. Through the course of study, students become familiar with the language of cinema to support their discussion of various genres, alternative modes, and national and ethnic thematic motivations.

The program is based in a diverse learning environment. In addition to courses dedicated to cinema history and theory, students may explore animation and film production, and take elective courses in literature and art history. The Savannah Film Festival, sponsored each fall by SCAD, offers a venue for students to meet directors, writers and actors from around the world, view new films, and participate in workshops and discussions with prominent filmmakers.
