The Multimedia Design program allows students to be creative while perfecting their technical skills in video production, animation, web content, instructional design, and the production workflow process. All classes provide students hands-on experience while creating multimedia projects, by completing pre-production, production and post-production tasks.
At FHTC I have found amazing opportunities to advance my skills in Multimedia Design, a field I love.
