Film, Video, & Theatre

Bachelor of Science

In this unique program, students acquire a thorough grounding in the liberal arts and an understanding of the art and techniques of creating film, theatre, and video.  As a FVT major at Stevenson, you will learn the basics of all three art forms by taking introductory core courses in each area.  In addition, you will take several courses that explore the relationship among the three art forms:  Script Writing for Stage and Screen, Directing for Stage and Screen, and an internship that will enable you to work with professionals in the field.

Each student will choose a focus in one of three art forms by the second semester, culminating in a senior project that provides a capstone experience which integrates your aesthetic vision with your technical training.

Here are just a few aspects of the Film, Video, & Theatre program that make it unique:

  • Seniors profile their work for an audience in the Senior Showcase and Senior film Festival
  • Faculty are active in their fields--providing excellent professional connections
  • Hands-on learning begins in the freshman year and continues through the senior year
  • Students participate in an internship during which they learn from professionals in the working world
  • Graduates are hired by many well-known employers
