B.S. Film Production

Our program in Film Production is for students who wish to pursue careers in film, video, and commercial production. The program is designed to train students for leadership positions where they will have a great influence on the content of the projects they're involved with. Students get the opportunity practice key skills like set design, editing, sound design, screenwriting, and directing. We provide the tools and guidance students need to produce short films, documentaries, screenplays, music videos, television commercials, broadcast graphics, and much more.
