Semester Hours: 2

This course (two hours per semester) requires the student to research and produce a documentary linked to service learning goals established by the College. BC 601 focuses on the research and production of the projects. BC 602 engages students in the production, post-production and presentation and assessment of the documentaries. Each student must participate in a documentary showcase and apply best practices when it comes to writing, interviewing and audio and production techniques. These documentaries become the newest element to the student’s e-portfolio capping off their journey in the Broadcast and Digital Communications curriculum.

Prerequisite: completion of the departmental comprehensive exam, BC 101 or 102, BC 111, and BC 251 and at least three semester hours of BC 120/Practicum.
