The Video and Film Production program offers a combination of filmmaking, video production, and live television production. Students are able to specialize in these aspects by their choices of required course options. Overall, the program blends theoretical and hands-on approaches to media production. Used for instruction are three production studios including a 3,000 square foot TV/film studio and a robotic TV studio with virtual sets; video editing facilities; an equipment checkout system for students that includes a variety of cameras and field production equipment; a 40-foot mobile television production lab; virtual and augmented reality lab; foley lab; a student-run FM radio station, and a student-run TV station.
The department supports several industry-specific student organizations that provide meaningful cocurricular opportunities for video and film production students. The department also features a varsity team for live television production that produces live broadcasts of athletic events, concerts, awards shows, and more. These opportunities are available to all students regardless of classification.
NOTE: Students must earn a C (2.00) or better in each course in the college in order to graduate.
