Videography and Motion Graphics

A video producer helps manage every step of making a video. This includes:

• Coming up with creative ideas
• Planning the budget and writing scripts
• Choosing actors and locations
• Directing, filming, and editing
• Delivering the final product
• Ensures the video is high-quality, on budget, and finished on time

In ECC’s program, you’ll gain technical and creative skills that prepare you for work in the field. You’ll learn how to:

• Use cameras, lighting, and sound equipment
• Edit using industry-standard software
• Plan shoots and organize video projects
• Record video, audio, and still images
• Add special effects, sound, and color during editing

A degree in video production, film, communication, or media studies is often pursued for a career in video production. However, a bachelor’s degree is not always necessary, as many employers value hands-on experience and technical skills over education. You can enter the field through an apprenticeship, technical training, or by building a portfolio and gaining experience independently. Ultimately, the most important factor for success in video production is a strong portfolio that showcases your skills and experience.
