The digital cinema and media major allows students to gain skills in digital media creation, production, and
distribution. The offered electives give students the flexibility to focus on their area of interest,
whether on screen or behind the camera. Electives in cross disciplines allow students to hone
their craft using resources not available throughout much of the Midwest.
What Makes the Program Distinctive?
WLC digital cinema and media majors have the opportunity to earn credit on feature films that
are distributed across many markets. WLC students have worked on films such as Journey to
Paradise, which was produced in 2010 and is distributed in Family Christian Stores and other
outlets worldwide. WLC students have served in professional roles and earned professional
credit in other works as well, including Mister Scrooge to See You, which was produced in 2013
by Salty Earth Pictures.
The digital cinema and media major prepares students in art, business, communication, and
theatre. While the major’s emphasis is on digital storytelling, students enhance their abilities
through collaboration across related fields, often participating in projects outside of the
classroom with students in different majors.
