about the program

Multimedia and Video Production Student Smiles While Recording for Video Podcast in Denver, CO

Our part-time Multimedia and Video Production program will give you hands-on experience running video cameras and equipment, producing in a TV studio setting, filming on location, and creating animated graphics. Our small class size allows you to have significant time with the instructor and more hands-on experience. Plus, our Multimedia and Video Production classes are in the evening so you can work while completing the program. 

Practice your video skills in a brand-new state-of-the-art studio at the Denver Community Media (formally known as the Colorado Media Center), which also houses Rocky Mountain PBS! You also get to complete a 64-hour internship working for a variety of video production companies, TV stations and more.
