By | February 5, 2020

On Tuesday, February 4, 2020, the Florida Panhandle Technical College Digital Video Technology Program flew drones over downtown Chipley, as seen in these FPTC student photos.

Students then edited the resulting aerial photos and video clips, part of the aerial photo and video production curriculum.  Drones are used as an integral part of this cutting-edge, total-immersion technology program, preparing students for a variety of career path options, including photography, video production, TV and radio, drone technology, audio production, social media and basics of business marketing.

Interested adults and dual-enrolled high school students may visit the class, by appointment only, and shadow students in the class for a day to better understand the offering.  For more information about this program and the over 30 degree and certification programs offered at Florida Panhandle Technical College, stop by Student Services, visit www.fptc.edu or call FPTC Student Services at 850-638-1180 ext. 317.
