You’re sitting at home, flipping through the channels on a lazy Sunday morning. You stop a commercial for a new cartoon that will premiere next week, and a smile appears on your face. As you continue to watch the commercial, your smile grows wider and a sense of pride puffs up your chest a little. The commercial ends, and you turn off the TV to see the moment.
You’ve just seen the first commercial for a show you’ve helped create, and you can’t help but feel excited.
Children’s media is an important part of the Canadian entertainment industry. With the rapid growth of the market, the demand for trained professionals is growing. Luckily, our school offers a unique program that allows you to build and develop exactly the skills you need for this job.
In just three semesters, you’ll learn how to create content for children’s media and learn how to manage and market different products. You will learn and master the true art of storytelling and then work on it in scriptwriting. Video production and project coordination will become second nature after you complete the first two semesters.
In your final semester, all your skills shine during the internship period. This is your opportunity to find the field of children’s media that speaks to you!
