The Digital Video Production Certificate of Achievement prepares students to work in diverse motion picture industries. With a focus on historical through contemporary cinema and video art genres, students will develop skill sets in documentary, narrative, video art, and remix video formats. After learning techniques in story boarding and script development, students will engage industry standard camera, sound, and lighting equipment. State of the art computer stations and digital video editing software will be used to learn strategic sequencing, color grading, motion graphics, and title, poster, and press kit design to create a mature portfolio of filmic work demonstrating advanced formal, conceptual, and technical development.
With multiple local high school pathway programs in digital video production, our estimation is that approximately 40 students will be in pursuit of a Certificate of Achievement in Digital Video Production in its first year with about 8-10completers after the first year and a half. These numbers would reflect the Commercial AA and Studio Art AA-T programs. For example, over the past 5years, the Commercial Art program averaged over 40 majors and 5 completers per year. Concurrently, the Studio Art program averaged 10 completers per year with enrollment increases from 695 students in 2016-17 to 821 students in2020-21 (see 2018-19 Fine & Applied Arts Program Review and forthcoming2021-2022 Fine & Applied Arts Program Review). In an era saturated by audiovisual content and the popularity of film and video, we anticipate an increase in student enrollment during the second year and afterward once the program gets fully underway.

The coursework of the certificate will address community needs through student documentaries on the various histories of groups in the region as well as through the production of commercial advertising content for K-12 or other business institutions.

Comment: I think this is a good program; just wished actual employers were on the Advisory Board.
