About the program

What you'll
study

This course provides tools for understanding digital audio and video, both as an art form and as an integral part of a company's marketing strategy.

Students learn to direct and coordinate the various technical teams involved in an audiovisual piece — scripts, camera operators, sound, art departments, electrical, casting, editors, post-producers, and publication and distribution formats.

Students also analyze videos, from online promotions through to cinematic productions, examining various technical perspectives to understand how audio and video work together to tell a coherent story.

Who it's for

The program aims to develop creative coordinators of audiovisual projects through an integrated, innovative curriculum that trains students to become audiovisual problem-solvers, critical thinkers and lifelong learners.
