ABOUT VIDEO PRODUCTION
"In the United States, over 200 million Internet users watch online video each day."
The goal of the Video Production Associate Degree Program is to teach students interested in a variety of Video Production careers ALL aspects of the production process – from concept development, through image capture, editing and distribution. Students will learn every step of the content creation process so that they are prepared for jobs as Independent Video Professionals or to enter into careers within specialized Video Production Disciplines (like Editing, Cinematography, Motion Graphic Design or Audio Production).
Because the majority of employment in Video Production is currently in short-form video content for the web, the Video Production Program at NTC prepares students for careers in an emerging local video industry by teaching professional video-making techniques and providing hands-on opportunities for students to produce professional, short-form projects that can be used in portfolios or video reels.
