Pros: Great Class
Nice Teacher
Light Work
Cons: Goes a little fast on powerpoints, but they are online
Took Attendance
I loved this class. It's a pretty easy A. I didn't read the textbook and did fine because everything you need to know is covered in lecture. Take this class if you can.

Pros: Most of the films in class were interesting. Slides are posted online and are straight to the point. The exams, especially the final, were REALLY easy. Just study the slides. Didn't use the book at all.
Cons: Some TAs are difficult to work with, while the others are great. Conroy was a little rude sometimes, depending on what was asked of her. Overall though she was fine. Lecture can get really boring. My TA was really hard on our exam reviews and papers, which I guess can be understandable, except for the fact that the exams were not nearly as difficult as she was making it out to be (aka impossible to pass).

Pros: Homework is just journal entries on films. Very easy.
The midterm and final is also easy.
Cons: Papers are graded harshly, however, if you have a good TA and constantly have him/her check it before you hand it in, you'll always get an A.
Good class to learn a bit about films and satisfy a CORE req. Glad I took it.

Her class is kind of boring if you are not interested in those video editing and film making techniques. Her word speed is slow enough for you to take perfect notes if you really want to take down whatever she has said (recommended--when you take exams you'll see). Over all, I really enjoy her class and sometimes hope longer lectures...
