NOCCA Media Arts Program: 

Media Arts 1b (2 1/2 credits) Fundamentals of film, video, audio, and digital media. Apple Final Cut Pro Training

The Media Arts Department offers technical and conceptual training in audio, film, and video production and digital media. Young artists receive the tools to create artistically, exploring and developing their own voice in a field that often emphasizes collaboration. With a respect for the past, students boldly create new works and prepare for the challenges of an ever-changing field. This program’s goal is to prepare students for admission to top universities and prepare them to work in the professional field of their choice as artists of sight, sound and motion.

Media Arts students master skills in audio recording, cinematography, directing, editing, lighting, motion graphics and script writing. In addition, all students in media arts gain an understanding of the history, theory and aesthetics of communication arts in order to appreciate the art form and to make informed decisions in their own work.

NOCCA’s Media Arts department is a Digidesign Sponsored School incorporating Digidesign hardware and ProTools software into its audio program. The department has Apple certified trainers to teach Final Cut Pro courses.
