Program Full Description
This program is designed for students interested in the television, film, and a variety of video production industries. Program course work explores career opportunities in these visual communications industries through practical experience in state-of-the-art professional facilities and the teaching of fundamental concepts and theories behind the practice. Industry positions include, but are not limited to, director, producer, camera operator, video editor, script writer, light designer, and production coordinator. Students utilize industry-standard software, hardware and production techniques as they build professional-quality portfolios of their work and engage in projects with their community. While some students may pursue the program of study for immediate entry into the workforce rather than transfer, the degree is designed for students preparing to enter a program leading to a baccalaureate degree at a four-year college or university.
