Testimonial

“As a Video Production student, I was constantly exposed to curriculum, classmates, technologies, and extracurriculars that rivaled bigger schools’ production programs. After graduating however, you learn that video, advertising, journalism, copywriting, and the art of communication are all vitally intertwined. As designed by the program, I was exposed to all these principles THROUGH the lens of video production, making my understanding of them unique to my own style. I am a less equipped graduate if I had gone to a different program, period.” – Chris Portie
