Student Exhibition: Yuetong Lu Student Exhibition: Yu Qiu Picture Library PHOTO SVA’s Photo & Video BFA program emphasizes a comprehensive visual language through a ground-breaking curriculum that gives students the technical and conceptual mastery to thrive in today’s professional landscape. The curriculum establishes a strong visual foundation through the study of analog and digital technical practices, theoretical discourse, and current cultural conversations. Emphasis is placed on the student’s individual development as it relates to their peer and professional communities. STUDENT WORK Simons Finnerty, Class of 2018 VIDEO One of the features of our BFA Photo & Video curriculum is to immerse our students in the moving image in its technical form as well as its conceptual possibilities. Having mastered the fundamental video processes after the first and second years of the program, each student can then specialize in an area of interest and relevance to their future video activity.
