Valdosta, Georgia – Wiregrass Tech is expanding the current Video Production program to create a new program, Design and Media Production Technology. This program combines interests in graphic design and video design into one program.

This new offering begins Fall Semester. The program is being offered as an Associates Degree where students can choose from two specialization tracts, Graphic Design and Prepress, and Video and Film Production. The program is also offered as a Diploma with several imbedded Technical Certificates of Credit. Students enrolled in the diploma program will be able to complete the program in four semesters, and the degree in five semesters.

There is a growing demand in South Georgia for both Graphic Designers and Video Production and a plus when the applicants have experience in both areas. With marketing and advertising for businesses and corporations a lot of advertising is going digital with video components. This degree or diploma would make graduates ready to be the answer for those needs in their communities. This program is offered as a hybrid program meaning some courses and content will be online and some face-to-face required.

For those who may miss those deadlines, the college is accepting new students for Fall Semester Express term, those classes start September 23.
