Digital Media Academy

Overview

Digital Media Academy Certifications are recognized by both industry and education as a standard of excellence.  Over the past 7 years DMA has earned a reputation of providing some of the highest-level instruction in the quick moving and ever-changing world of Digital Media. NEW for summer 2009, DMA is introducing a 4-week, modular, Video Production certification program.  DMA’s Video Production Certification Program is created from 4 unique weeklong courses that together cover all of the major components of the Video Production workflow and process.

Because DMA’s Video Production Certification Program is built from multiple courses students can attend one, two, three or the entire four weeks in one summer or over multiple summers.  This gives students flexibility on how many weeks they choose to attend. Each week stands alone as a complete learning experience with a defined set of objectives and a final project.  Students who choose to, can then move on over multiple weeks and earn certification.

Outcome

Being DMA Certified means that not only has the student touched on all major parts of the video production process and work flow, but that he/she has also demonstrated a high level of proficiency with industry standard tools such as Final Cut Studio and/or Adobe After Effects. The outcome of this 4-week track of courses is a student authored DVD with a portfolio of short films and video projects. These projects will display the student’s skills with both the artistic and technical sides of video production & post production.
