Media Arts B.A.

The B.A. program provides a uniquely integrated curriculum that combines the areas of Digital Filmmaking and Integrated Digital Media.  The courses in Digital Filmmaking focus on the three primary components of pre-production, production and post-production and include directing, writing, sound design, and editing. The courses in Integrated Digital Media focus on the relationship between digital technology and aesthetics and include still image/motion graphics, compositing, 2D animation, sound design and interactive media. History and theory courses in both areas provide students with a deeper understanding of artistic principles and practices. The undergraduate program has a large production space including a green screen area, three computer labs with 60 total stations and an audio recording room. After completion of the prerequisite courses, there is a G.P.A. gate in effect for admission into the Major.
