Also includes an introduction to Video production. Classes include digital audio production for new media, MIDI sequencing and audio for video post production. Students learn the fundamentals of audio production, intermediate level video production, non-linear editing and signal processing, using Opcode StudioVison, Pro Tools 24 and Digidesign Digi001 workstations to integrate sound into their productions. All students complete a short video project and learn to integrate video elements into their new media projects. Workstations used are Adobe Premiere with Pinnacle ReelTime.
Students complete individual and group projects and develop and present their portfolios.
Upon successful completion of the program, each student will have produced a portfolio that features a broad range of new media projects and incorporates graphics, animation, audio and video. Students will have a variety of production credits, including at least one producer credit for a group project. Lab and production time takes place outside of these hours. Students can expect to spend twelve hours per day or more at the school, six days a week. While the school does not discourage students from pursuing their own projects, it is understood that as a student the majority of your time will and should be directed toward assigned projects.
