You love
music. You love the gadgets. You love
videos. You'll absolutely LOVE this !
What are you going to do after high school? Did you
ever think you could turn your passion for sound or video into
a career? At River Valley Technical Center, we’ll
show you how. Our Audio and Video Engineering program will teach
you to use state-of-the-art equipment to create audio and
productions for radio, television, and film.
If you’re a performer — singer or musician
— Audio Engineering is a great way to learn what
goes into making a recording. Find your way around a
recording studio and cut your own demo … and you’ll
be way ahead of anyone who just dreams of being a superstar.
In Audio and Video Production classes, you’ll participate in one
hour of synchronous activities, in person or online,
for the first block of the day. You’ll have another
hour of daily online work to be done independently.
