Digital Media: TV/Film Production Concentration

Every collegiate journey begins with the basics. First-year classes emphasize the fundamentals of TV/Film Production storytelling.

Students are introduced to pre-production planning, camera, sound, and lighting techniques, and post-production skills using the Adobe Suite.

Students complete their first internship experience in the summer following their first academic year.

Students advance their skills through classes in the business of television and film, writing for the screen, hands-on experience with our advanced cameras and in-depth exploration of post-production editing techniques.

Students complete their second internship experience either in winter session the summer following the academic year.

Advanced production and research classes refine skills, so that students begin to plan, write and envision their Senior Capstone film. They take our Engaging Clients class where students work with a non-profit client on a marketing project. Clients have included the Dana Farber Cancer Institute, Hammond Castle Museum, Lifebridge, New Entry Sustainability Farming Project and Endicott’s Living Learning Community.

Students have the option to study abroad or in the US for a semester. Our partnerships allow for study in New York City or California and build connections with film and TV industry professionals.

In their final year, students complete a full-semester internship. Students work with industry professionals, companies, and institutions for 20-30 hours each week. This immersive experience aids students with their transition after graduation.

At the same time, students research, write, plan, cast, film, and edit their Capstone film. Students enhance their portfolio with work that’s their best representation of all that they’ve learned. Student films have gone on to screen at film festivals.
