Watch Movies, Get College Credit

More great film classes for New Mexican's, compliments of Santa Fe Community College Media Arts department!

Too good to be true, but it is true! In Rick Reichman's American Film History Class, you will watch movies and get an overview of the evolution of American film from its earliest days, just before the 1900's—up to the modern era. You will see some of the most entertaining and important films of the American Cinema and learn how these movies reflected the times and culture in which they appeared. It's a three credit course that emphasizes movies and their stars, directors, producers and studios. The Fall semester begins August 22, so sign up soon to guarantee a spot!

Welcome New Members Santa Fe Community College to crewnewmexico.com

We've been watching Santa Fe Community College Media Arts department take a very pro-active approach to training the next Crew of New Mexico filmmakers. In fact, it was during an FTTP training class that the idea for crewnewmexico.com was born, so this is all very full circle: we're extremely proud to welcome them as the newest members of the crewnewmexico.com family.

Over the next months, you're going to start seeing ads and hearing much more about the impressive roster of film/media classes the College is offering. It's our goal to provide as much information to the New Mexico Film community so you know who and what training, resources, and goods are available to you as you plan/shoot/study here in NM, and we've got a lot to tell you about!

We'll be introducing you to instructors, and talking about classes. . . Associates in Film, Certificate in Film Crew, Film Directing Intensives, and much more. And, you never know, we may pop-up here and there to do a guest lecture.

Meantime, have a look at the College's website and look at some of the classes they have coming down the pike. Very impressed, and we're happy to be part of getting the word out.
