Film & New Media Studies

Film & New Media Studies Giving Circle

With the ubiquity of online journalism, the surge in streaming services, the explosion of audiobooks and podcasts, the rising readership of comics and graphic novels, and the growth of branded content, it’s an exciting time to support students majoring in film and media at Wheaton College. Be a part of our student's storyline by helping to provide:

• Greater variety of courses both in studies (genre and filmmaker specific courses) and production (cinematography/lighting, virtual production, sound for film).
• More opportunities for students to interact with working professionals in ways that help them gain insight into career planning and industry practices, e.g., site visits to area studios and production companies, campus visits from film and media practitioners, structured internship experiences, and so forth.

Join a community that enjoys exploring cinematic history, examining media ethics, or challenging themselves with an unfamiliar genre or new behind-the-scenes skill. Together, we can build upon the proven strength of Film & New Media Studies to increase capacity for the major and enhance the quantity and variety of career-readying course offerings at Wheaton.
