The Television, Film, and Digital Media Experience

The Bachelor of Science in Television, Film, and Digital Media (TFDM) at Ithaca College is the ultimate four-year launchpad for the next generation of digital creators. From your very first semester, you jump straight into action with hands-on experience using professional equipment and production techniques.

This four-year program is designed to prepare you for a variety of careers in digital media communications, including:
• producing film and series television
• social media
• live broadcast production
• directing
• on-camera performance
• postproduction
• audio production
• photography 
• other related communication professions

The most significant competitive differentiator of the Television, Film, and Digital Media (TFDM) program at Ithaca College is the immediate access to Ithaca College Television (ICTV). Founded in 1958, ICTV is the world's oldest and longest-running student lead cable television station . It serves as a direct, real-world extension of the TFDM Bachelor of Science curriculum.

While traditional film schools limit studio access to upperclassmen, Ithaca's policy allows TFDM students to step onto a live broadcast set or scripted series production team in their very first semester
