Abstract
This research studies the expression of critical perspectives of Film and Television students in viewing urban portraits through the creation of short films. The research process was carried out by stimulating ideas and perspectives of students' information literacy on urban issues in detail, then interpreting these ideas into short films. The result reveals: first, students expressed their critical ideas since the stage of detailing and interpreting urban portraits; second, students narrated films very vaiously beyond the formal standard of narrative texts; and third; Students' critical perspectives were expressed from their cleverness in choosing places, objects, and moments that met shooting scenarios, as well as in processing limited video stocks to keep them looking dramatic through cinematographic techniques and background sound as a defense of students' interpretation of the city portrait and to stand the effectivity in communicating the film's message to the audience.
