Leveraging the knowledge of SAIC instructors and our cutting-edge programs, students in Film, Video, New Media, and Animation (FVNMA) explore creative experimentation, technological advancement, and analytical inquiry across various media formats. The tools and discussions surrounding film, video, digital media, and animation aren't just technical skills—they're fundamental aspects of contemporary culture. The FVNMA program transcends conventional media education by examining the potential in documentary, storytelling, immersive installations, interactive artworks, exhibition design, and online initiatives. Graduate students frequently pioneer cross-disciplinary, blended projects that reinvent classical approaches to forge innovative artistic pathways, with the department actively encouraging such bold experimentation.

Qualification Requirements
A conferred four-year baccalaureate degree or its equivalent is required for admission to all graduate programs at SAIC. Transcripts are records of your studies that list the courses you completed, the grades received, and provide evidence of degree conferral. They may include grade sheets, exam results, final diplomas, degrees, or graduation certificates.
Official translations are expected for all educational documents issued in a language other than English. A translation agency or university language department should issue official translations typed on official stationary and the translator must attest proficiency in the original language and indicate their translations are accurate word-for-word.
During the application process an unofficial transcript is acceptable for review pending an Admissions decision. Official transcripts are required upon admission. Include transcripts both official and unofficial from all universities/colleges from which a degree was obtained or prerequisites were fulfilled.
Transcripts are considered official if sent directly from the degree- or credit-granting institution to the SAIC Graduate Admissions Office.
2 Letters of Reference are required.
