Class attendance and participation helps. A term paper on a related topic and a personal webpage are mandatory. Always open to questions and discussion. Would recommend previous computer experience. An introduction to the techniques and practices that go into videography and conventional studio broadcasting.
Tests are multiple choice and short answer.
Video projects are done in small groups, grading is determined by mutual evaluation. The labs are more open though, allowing you to try things out and ask questions. Lab sections are broken in half with each half being responsible for a final project. Try not to just get assigned to a group. Make the initiative to get to know your classmates early and try to have the people you want to work with in your group.
