The Film and video industry entertains, challenges, impacts our understanding of current events, heightens our awareness of social issues, and even influences our buying decisions. Be a part of this cultural phenomenon, and enroll in the Film and Video Production (FVP) program. The FVP program prepares you for a career in one of Canada's evolving media industries. You will learn the fundamentals of scriptwriting, producing, directing, cinematography, sound recording, editing as well as the business aspects of the film and video industries. FVP is delivered in a unique environment that combines traditional teaching methods with hands-on production and project models. In the second year, students have the opportunity to specialize, and are further assisted in finding a practicum opportunity to obtain firsthand experience and establish additional contacts in the industry. The program is two years in length with each academic year divided into two 15--week semesters. All Film and Video Production students participate in e-learning based curriculum. Students lease PC laptop computers from SAIT, which are equipped with various software applications. Internet access, training and technical support are provided throughout the program.
