Using basic digital media compositing tools including Photoshop, Powerpoint and iMovie, this course introduces students to the concepts and techniques for creating dynamic presentations. Students will also work with audio mixing to create sound tracks utilizing narration, sound effects, and music. Screenings, readings, and technical workshops will be used to develop a critical eye for the consumption and production of media. Students will gain basic skills in scripting, storyboarding, production and post-production. This class focuses on media that is accessible and easy to use, using common source materials. Credit will be awarded for two 3-5 minute media presentations appropriate for classroom or business use.
