The Multimedia Information Design programs at Cincinnati State prepare students to design and produce media content in all formats. The final product might be distributed as a component of a mobile device application, a website, a TV or radio commercial, a production for television or movies, an interactive DVD, or printed information. The target audience may be a few people or many, and the products may be created for educational, entertainment, or commercial use.
Multimedia Information Design (MID) programs include three associate's degrees and a certificate:
- Audio/Video Production (AVP)
- Graphic Design (GRD)
- Web and Multimedia Design (WEBM)
- Web and Multimedia Design Certificate (WEBC)
All students complete a core set of courses covering basic skills in design and production of media content. Subsequent courses introduce program-specific competencies, ranging from 3-D animation to music video production.
Most of the Multimedia Information Design labs are housed in the College’s Advanced Technology & Learning Center on the Clifton Campus. Students have access to a professional video studio and editing lab, a recording studio and digital mixing labs, usability testing labs, and computer labs.
Students entering any of the Multimedia Information Design programs are expected to own a laptop computer and frequently-used software. Additional information about this requirement is available from program faculty, and on the College website pages for each MID degree or certificate program.
