Hide-Advance your creative and digital skills in the Multimedia Production level 6 course offer in Kinsale College. This course builds on students skills gained on our level 5 course and grows their digital expertise and training. Graduates can gain entry into the second year of a level 8 degree course or enter into the exciting field of multimedia production and design.

The majority of work on this course is practical rather than theory based, therefore students are given the opportunity to produce varied and substantial portfolios. Students are given ‘hands-on’ training by experienced teachers who guide and support students through all aspects of multimedia production. Students also have access to their own editing suite (iMac with Adobe Premiere Pro) and SLR cameras.

Graduates of Multimedia Production Level 6 can continue education or enter the professional world. Multimedia production skills are required across all professional industries; a skilled and well-trained media producer has more professional opportunities to find success than ever before.
