Finance and Film: New MOOCs

My latest MOOC additions...

New Venture Finance: Startup Funding for Entrepreneurs

University of Maryland on Coursera, 01/12/2014 - present

I have now started the third course in my entrepreneurship specialisation.

Funding for Entrepreneurs - syllabus

Finance is rarely ever an enjoyable subject, but it is an essential one and one that I am fully determined to master!

The Language of Hollywood: Storytelling, Sound and Colour

Wesleyan University, 02/02/2015 - present

This MOOC is more of a side curiosity and really is just exploring a subject I have always been fascinated by in the world of cinema - innovation.

Additionally, I get to watch a number of films as part of the course which is always a plus.

Scandinavian Film and Television

University of Copenhagen, 02/02/2015 - present

Another side curiosity which I am not bothering to study too minutely, I am just using the course materials in order to provide an overview of Scandinavian cinema.

Scandinavian Film and Television - Syllabus

However, I do wish that I did have the time to study it a little more closely, but I will more than likely sign up for an additional session of this MOOC later in the year.

Explore Filmmaking: From Script to Screen

National Film and Television School, 02/02/2015 - present

I am not really studying this MOOC as much as I am reviewing it to determine how it teaches the various facets of filmmaking in the online space.

However, it has been refreshing many of the pieces of knowledge and practice I gained from my BA (hons) in Creative Writing with Film and Screen Studies. Knowledge that is currently being put into practice in my 365 FRAMES 2015 project.

Documentary: New Trends, New Formats

Universidad Carlos III de Madrid, 17/02/2015 - present

This MOOC caught my eye some time back and is one that I have been eagerly awaiting to undertake; mainly because it picks up where my traditional education in documentary left off and considers a subject that is at the heart of the Ways 2 Interface research project and study log - the ways in which we interface with ourselves.

Additionally, this MOOC deals with a progressive area that I am currently exploring in my 365 FRAMES 2015 project; as well as various other creative projects I am developing.
