Program Description
The Entertainment Technology Program provides students with a solid foundation in the knowledge and skills needed for entry into the entertainment field, or to transfer to a baccalaureate program. Students may choose from the following two options: Sound and Recording Engineering (AAS.ETS) and Video and Digital Media Production (AAS.ETV). Students who wish to transfer to a baccalaureate program are strongly advised to seek information regarding admission and transfer requirements. The Video and Digital Media Production option of the Entertainment Technology Program prepares students for jobs such as broadcast or production engineers, producers and assistant producers, video editors, camera operators, master control and technical directors, freelance business persons, and the associated video production opportunities in the expanding video and Internet areas. Non-linear digital video editing is the industry standard for professionals working in television and film - and now on Web pages and the Internet. Industry demand for editors skilled in the leading digital post-production techniques has caused non-linear editing to emerge as a rapidly growing specialty. With the expansion of digital video, DVDs, webstreaming, video CDs, and the associated media, opportunities exist for employment on production teams, serving as freelancers or operating as independent producers, or entrepreneurs for recording special events, weddings, social functions, corporate content media, instructional and multimedia productions, and a host of varied content and media applications. Graduates of this program can transfer to Rowan University to continue their education towards a Bachelor of Arts in Radio, Television and Film.
