This class was kind of annoying. I do think it was interesting but we had to do projects, which required us to create films and edit them and I hated that. I am not tech savvy and it just made me so fustrated.
Overall I enjoyed this class. Most of the time is spent watching movies and discussing them and the film industry as a whole, specifically in Latin America. Most of the movies are entertaining, although you will have to spend every monday night watching them at the screenings. Readings are somewhat dull, but there aren't a ton of them. Grade is mostly based on performance on videographic projects and the midterm and final exams. Professor Poppe is super friendly and incredibly passionate about the subject, which also helps a lot.

Hispanic film was a very interesting class. Professor Poppe was very nice and chill also have homework extensions. I really enjoyed the classes and it was very fun to have many discussions. the only downside is that the video homeworks were graded harshly
