Profile
Visual Ethnography provides an important framework, toolkit, and skillset to address the pressing concerns of Global Vulnerabilities and Social Resilience. Visual Ethnography draws upon audiovisual media’s unique ability to share insights about people and places on multiple registers – discursive, sensory, embodied, spatial, etc. Furthermore, with the growing prominence of digital media, Visual Ethnography offers an expanded framework for producing contemporary anthropological research. Multimodal approaches have become increasingly important components in ethnographic research for collaborating with research communities and expanding the range of scholarly outputs. Visual Ethnography highlights the vital role anthropology plays in the greater public.In the fall, you develop your own visual ethnography research project, with a thesis proposal and portfolio film. In the winter, you produce audiovisual materials during a 2,5-month period of fieldwork. In the spring, you analyse your materials and edit a montage of key sequences into a final multimodal thesis. In the summer, you complete the programme with your own ethnographic film and/or an expanded multimedia production.
