I teach a paper at Unitec officially called “LAND 7230 CAD Studio” however it’s more affectionately  known as Film CAD. I’ve been teaching this paper for over 10 years now! Students have 3 major hand-ins; a story board, draft video, and the final video. While doing the paper, students get a crash course in film theory, green screen compositing (shot @ Sunset) and learn various software packages including Vue Infinite and Finalcut Studio. Each student is responsible for their own video (I tried group projects once, never again) and they have to do it in one semester. If your keen on seeing the results of all this (18 in total) you can go to Youtube or watch them below (at the end of the first clip there should be a menu with the rest);
