Advising Track Options

In addition to the above requirements, students must choose between one of two advising tracks, either Digital Arts & Technology or Digital Filmmaking. These are advising tracks only and not official programs as recognized by the University of Montana (UM) or the Montana University System. This information will not appear on your UM transcript, diploma, university lists, student data system, or university publication. You do not fill out a major change for a track.

Digital Arts & Technology

Note: The Bachelor of Fine Arts | Digital Arts & Technologies curriculum focuses on the artistic and creative application of digital technologies. Lower division core classes cover the fundamentals of software applications such as the Adobe Creative Cloud Suite and include still image, motion, animation and sound design components. They also include the fundamentals of creative coding. Upper division core classes cover the principles and applications of web technologies (including HTML, CSS, and Javascript) and interactivity (including gaming, virtual reality, and installations). Senior level core classes center on advanced projects and developing a portfolio-centered internet presence.

Digital Filmmaking

Note: The Bachelor of Fine Arts | Digital Filmmaking track offers an all-inclusive experience in the areas of pre-production, production and post production. Project-based courses cover narrative, experimental, documentary, and commercial content creation for both traditional and interactive-based environments.
