Associate Professor Ethan Mills is a fan of horror and science fiction.<\/p><\/div>\n

To watch the films, go to: <\/strong>https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/playlist?list=PLDewBXbGlYVBDuL5tkvrA-MlbjfdUN0yb<\/a><\/div>\n

When Zuriel Hampton-Coffin learned he would have to make a horror film for his Popular Culture and Religion and Philosophy course, he wasn\u2019t horrified.<\/p>\n

\u201cI was very excited and became more interested in the class,\u201d said the freshman in entrepreneurship. \u201cKnowing that it was a horror film didn’t really make a difference, I was just excited to make a movie.<\/p>\n

\u201cI really enjoyed the filmmaking process. It was much harder than I thought\u00a0it would be, but it was very enjoyable.\u201d<\/p>\n

Getting students to think outside the box\u2014or in this case, inside the movie theater\u2014is one reason Ethan Mills, associate professor of philosophy and religion, assigns a three- to five-minute horror film as one of the assignments each semester in the course. Students\u2019 reactions vary.<\/p>\n

\u201cUsually, they are a little surprised, and there’s a whole history of that because the name of the classes are pretty generic title: Popular Culture and Religion and Philosophy,\u201d he said. \u201cSome people go, \u2018Cool. I’m really excited. This is going to be awesome.\u2019 And sometimes I get the reaction, \u2018Well, I’m not really a horror fan. I don’t really want to make movies, but, you know, maybe it’ll be interesting.\u2019<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat I hope they get out of it is they\u2019ll be able to appreciate popular culture at a deeper level, more thoughtfully,\u201d he said. \u201cYou can think philosophically about anything.<\/p>\n

Mills has used filmmaking technique in the class three times, including this semester. The latest batch will debut on Nov. 18. One will be selected as the best and win prizes.<\/p>\n

The films must illustrate one of the philosophical tenets that have been discussed in class, including existentialism, denial of death, authenticity, absurdity, transhumanism and others. Students must explain, in writing, the concept they are highlighting in their script.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen you’re making a film, you can’t just say, \u2018So-and-so is feeling sad.\u2019 You have to think about: How do you show that that character is sad? How do you show some of these abstract philosophical ideas? How would you take these ideas and put them in a visual medium?\u201d<\/p>\n

Hoffman-Coffin said representing the philosophical concepts was easier than he thought.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou would think that writing scripts addressing philosophical concepts would be hard, but it really wasn’t. Professor Mills provided us with many different concepts, which made it extremely easy to create a film addressing those,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Breaking off into groups, students write the screenplay and design the filmmaking process from figuring out the camera shots, the lighting, the pacing and choosing the actors. Working with Wes Smith in the UTC Library Studio<\/a>, they use professional-grade cameras for filming and computer software and equipment to edit, create the music and add special effects their films. Some students use their smartphones to film.<\/p>\n

\u201cActually, especially some of the newer phones, have pretty decent video capabilities, so they\u2019re actually not bad,\u201d Mills said.<\/p>\n

Along with discussing the philosophical writings of Jennifer McMahon, Albert Camus, and W.E.B. DuBois, his students have read books and short stories and watched films of horror, then connected the two. They\u2019ve discussed books such as the original Frankenstein,<\/em> in which the \u201cmonster\u201d is very intelligent but reviled. In doing so, the novel examines xenophobia and the nature of what it means to be human.<\/p>\n

They\u2019ve watched Get Out!,<\/em> the 2017 horror film nominated for a Best Picture Oscar which tackles racism and transhumanism, the idea of using science to improve humans. They\u2019ve read novels by Stephen King and the short stories of H.P. Lovecraft, whose writings conclude that the universe doesn’t make any sense and we are simply specks on an infinite canvas.<\/p>\n

\u201cThinking about something like Frankenstein<\/em>, which is still part of the popular culture 200 years after the novel was published, I find it kind of interesting to go back to the original source and see where it all came from,\u201d Mills said.<\/p>\n

With the COVID-19 pandemic in full swing, though, certain changes had to be made.<\/p>\n

\u201cI have to remind them that when they’re filming to be careful interacting with other people. So I’ve really been stressing the safety, especially on the filming aspect,\u201d Mills said.<\/p>\n

Group discussions can be done over Zoom, he noted, and social distancing and masks are used by students when actual filming takes place, except for the actors who have to speak the lines, of course.<\/p>\n

One of his suggestions for safety-first is to create a found-footage film\u2014think The Blair Witch Project<\/em> or the Paranormal Activity<\/em> movies. Those can be made using Zoom, reducing the amount of time students spend in face-to-face groups.<\/p>\n

Whatever the style, students hopefully will discover new ways to enjoy what they read and see, Mills said.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen we’re watching films or reading the short stories and novels that we cover, what I’m trying to train them to do is to find the philosophical content, getting those works. But when they’re making the films, it’s kind of from the other side. They’re putting that content into their own work, so they see it from both sides. I think that’s a really unique learning experience.\u201d<\/p>\n
