ARTS PROGRAMS 

Students admitted to Digital Arts and Cinema Technology High School choose between the two arts tracks: Digital Arts or Cinema Production. They will then embark on an intensive study and production course sequence.

In each track, students will learn fundamental and complex concepts/skills necessary in the respective fields, while simultaneously being provided the time, support and reflection to develop their artistic body of work.
