Students in web design produce
their own webpages; the advanced designers work with clients
to produce websites. Video students produce a range of work
including self-portraiture, public service announcements,
and mini-documentaries using digital video editing systems.
Each class builds on the last, allowing students to move
from a 3rd grade basic animation class all the way to an
advanced video production class in high school.
One can sense the excitement in these classrooms
as the young producers take the media into their own hands,
gaining confidence in their abilities to express themselves
creatively. Students who collaborate on projects with local
organizations learn how to communicate with clients, giving
them a head start in the professional world. Participants
in this program work with the latest hardware and software,
gaining invaluable computer
literacy. |
