APC Document 29: Cross listing MMAS 151 as MCOM 151

Add: Page 157, after Mass Comm 102 description

MCOM 151 Digits In Motion (MMAS 151) (3)
Artistic and technical skills of 2D/3D animation, video editing (post-production) and compositing, sound processing and sound effects. Research methods and critical skills. Corequisites: MMAS 107, 121, or permission of instructor. Fall and Spring.

Impact Statement:
The addition of MCOM 151 to the major will have little impact. What impact it will have will be to allow students interested in video production and 3D animation in mass communications (as well as multimedia) to get a foundation of knowledge on the subject before they take upper level MCOM courses.

Rationale:
Cross listing this class is an important step toward pooling resources and further nurturing the interdisciplinary mass communications and multimedia curricula.
