Description
Students in the Video Technician career option will use Adobe Photoshop, Adobe Illustrator, iMovie and Adobe Premiere to edit raw video camera and audio footage into final products for viewing. Students master both non-linear computer editing techniques and real-time editing for professional digital video productions. Students also acquire skills in digital photography and learn copyright basics. They enhance web design and animation skills as they bring their ideas to life. The Digital Design course is unlike a traditional classroom setting because assignments are available online and through self-paced video training as well as individual and group projects completed in and out of the classroom. Students post their work to their own WordPress website as well as create an online and print portfolio.
