In the second and third years, students can choose to specialize further in either photography or video/filmmaking.
For the photography track, students have the option to take Studio Photography and Photo 3, where they dive deeper into advanced photography techniques, image editing, and composition. These courses allow students to refine their skills in capturing and editing high-quality images, exploring various genres of photography, and developing a personal photographic style.
In the video production/filmmaking track, students can opt for Broadcast Media/Video Production and TV3. These courses focus on video production, storytelling, and post-production techniques. Students learn about camera operation, video editing, scriptwriting, and creating compelling visual narratives for different platforms.
Broadcast Media/Video Production students receive advanced instruction in electronic news gathering and other programming formats. Emphasis is placed on completing assignments to be aired on Lenape District TV and on the world wide web via ShawneeTV.com. Organizational skills, problem solving, creativity, writing skills, professionalism, and the ability to work cooperatively are modeled and discussed throughout the course. Students experience the vocational environment in a state of the art television production studio.
Cinematic Storytelling (formerlyTV3) students create films for their college and career portfolios.
