Convergent Media Program

“The Convergent Media Program was excellent. Top notch instructors with real world experience. I would highly recommend this engaging and interactive experience.”
Karen Hegmann, President, k-VISIONcommunications

The WIFT-T Convergent Media Program is essential for those who want to understand the transition from conventional to digital media. Through eight sessions, participants learn how to translate film or television projects to digital platforms while remaining focused on monetization. Participants gain insight into Canadian audiences and the technologies that facilitate consumption. The program also incorporates a collaborative project where group members develop a cross-platform idea from concept to pitch.
