Each year, Digital Cinema and Broadcasting sophomores at Northeast are tasked with creating their Capstone projects. Digital Cinema and Broadcasting students are allowed to do anything from directing their very own short films, documentaries, game shows, or radio shows. Capstone projects are meant to be a culmination of all of the knowledge the students have learned over the course of their time at Northeast. Digital Media instructor Nancy Sutton-Smith says, “Capstone pieces are semester long projects meant to mirror real life media projects.”

Wes Thoene produced his Capstone as a rendition of the game show Hollywood Squares. Digital Cinema student Tiffany Jacobson works at News Channel Nebraska, and did her project on owner Mike Flood and the founding of NCN.

The Digital Cinema projects will premiere at the Norfolk 7 Theater Saturday, May 6 at 10 a.m. and Broadcasting projects will air on KHWK-TV starting Monday, May 8^th at 10:00 am.  You can read more about the Digital Cinema capstone projects at this website.
