John Paul the Great Catholic University prepares students professionally and spiritually for careers in the diverse, yet complementary fields of media, business, and technology. It provides an academically rigorous, yet practical environment for students called to impact culture for Christ.
Directing as a profession requires the ability to shape the creative and artistic vision for an entire project and to execute its production. This program teaches the student's the art and craft of film and video production, while expanding their understanding of the critical components of this art form. The program seeks to stimulate the creative imagination, combined with the sense of Christian responsibility to give the visual storyteller the ingenuity and skill to take creative risks. At every stage, students are working on their own films with other students. The curriculum includes screenwriting, directing, cinematography, editing, sound, production simulation, managing talent, financing and logistics.
