Media Arts

The Sage Ridge Media Arts program explores the skills and artistry required to tell impactful stories, increase understanding, and influence the behaviors and opinions of others.

Media is the plural of medium, meaning the devices and visuals that comes between those communicating. As face-to-face communication dwindles and our lives become increasingly saturated with messaging, the art of creating impactful communications is vital.

"I was the editor of the yearbook for two years in a row, and that was a really great experience for me to not only be able to express my creativity and have ownership over a full project, but also to learn those leadership skills that are so critical in college and an actual career."
