Film and New Media provides students with many experiences that will help to create a realistic career pathway in film, video, and new media. This program begins Summer, 2011, for five weeks (all day – month of July and first week of August), is scheduled one-half day (PM) offering for the 2011-12 school year, and then finishes Summer, 2012 after five weeks (all day month of July and first week of August).  During the 2011-12 school year, students are involved in six, six-week field placements for three days per week. Two days per week, students will receive instruction either face-to-face or through online work. Field placements are in television stations/studios, film and video production studios, web design studios, sound mixing/production facilities, non-profit organizations, or are part of screenwriter apprenticeships. Students will learn:

• how to successfully survive on a film, TV, or video location

• how to problem-solve, adapt, and improvise to achieve artistic goals

• how to network, collaborate, and develop career goals

• how to bring a creative vision to the world

Students interested in this program should possess a strong interest in pursuing a career in the film industry and will need to provide their own transportation to summer school and field experience sites.
