Digital Video Bundle
The web is driven by digital video, from TikToks to live sports to documentaries.
Through the Digital Video bundle, you will learn how to shoot and edit professional video content using state-of-the-art equipment.
Two classes, Digital Media Production I and II, prepare you with techniques in camera placement, framing, lighting, and audio recording, and will give you video editing experience in pacing, storytelling, and special effects.
This bundle also gives students practice in writing content for various digital media platforms, and becoming well-versed in copyright concerns and other ethical situations you may have to encounter in video field production and broadcasting.
