The Digital Multimedia program is a collaborative initiative
designed to develop the knowledge, skills and attitudes students
need to create and respond to evolving digital media techniques.
Students use state-of-the-art Apple computers and digital
equipment to create multimedia projects. In this course,
students will use the Adobe Master Suite Collection in
photography and videography to create and manipulate digital
media designs.
Students in this program will also utilize audio mixing and
recording equipment in the digitally equipped sound studio.
In addition, students learn professional and communication
skills necessary to establish, maintain and develop client
relationships.
The program offers interdisciplinary study that provides
frameworks within which motivated students combine their
knowledge of the arts with critical training using cutting edge
and emerging creative technologies.
