EMERGING AND EVOLVING TECHNOLOGIES Emerging and evolving technologies are changing the video and film industries. Today’s video producers must be able to do more than shoot and edit videotape. Knowing how to combine traditional production techniques with the appropriate digital tools is the key to success.
What you’ll study * Learn camera operation, lighting, Steadicam operation, linear and non-linear editing, electronic newsgathering, compositing and sequencing, and more—hands-on from the first quarter. * Become familiar with basic graphic design and color theory. * Progress to scriptwriting, multi-camera production, live show production, directing, and pre- and post-production techniques, both analog and digital, using AVID, Final Cut Pro, Pro Tools, and Adobe® Premiere editing systems. * Create a portfolio of your work to show prospective employers.
Special features Students learn special visual effects and video graphics using computer applications like Adobe® After Effects and develop practical skills such as crew relations. They also study project management and business marketing skills to help them enter into their chosen field.
Career opportunities Graduates in digital media production have the knowledge to navigate among the dynamic worlds of video production, multimedia, and converging technologies. Companies today are looking for employees who can conceive, construct, and deliver content for CDs, DVDs, video, and broadband Internet. Graduates of the program are prepared for entry-level positions where they create dynamic content by formulating, constructing, and delivering digital audio, video, broadcast graphics, and animation. They are also prepared to manage content for distribution though a variety of traditional and new media, including CD, DVD, television, and broadband Internet. |
