Multimedia Design

Two young men, one wearing a red shirt, are intently focused on something in the foreground, with a green screen visible in the background.

Integrating music, video, graphic design, 3D modeling, animation, and video game design.

Step into the world of professional multimedia production and master four creative disciplines: video editing with Adobe Premiere Pro, photo editing and design with Adobe Photoshop, animation and motion graphics with Adobe Animate, and music production and sound design with Logic Pro. Starting with key tools and how to use them, then moving into real-world applications and collaborative pre-production processes that explore the “Why, With, and Who” behind every creative choice. Students work through scenario-based challenges, pitching ideas to “big companies” and solving problems for specific audiences, while also developing personal projects, where students create original work from scratch. A bonus project offers the chance to create something meaningful for a family member, friend, or other personal connection. Throughout the semester, projects are designed to mirror the demands of the creative industries, encouraging collaboration, creative problem-solving, and professional production standards. By gaining foundational knowledge in these four disciplines and exploring their newest AI-powered tools, students will graduate the course with a polished, professional portfolio that demonstrates their ability to edit, design, animate, and produce using the latest innovations in digital media!

About Multimedia Instructor Roberto Borja

Hi, I'm Roberto! My creative journey started in my living room with stop-motion Lego recreations of Titanic (1997). Uploading hundreds of photos to a computer and watching the animation come together gave me an early sense of the creative process that still drives my work today.

I’m a multimedia producer and educator specializing in video production, photography, and editing across corporate marketing, weddings, sports, education, and real estate. A graduate of SI ('19), and with a degree in Cinema, I bring over half a decade of professional videography / photography experience all across California. I’m proficient in the Adobe Creative Suite, Motion Array graphics, and a wide range of production tools including Sony cameras, drones, gimbals, lighting setups, and audio gear.

In my free time I love biking across the Golden Gate Bridge to Sausalito, listening to music and podcasts, working out, going to farmers markets, and editing! :)

If you have any questions about videography, photography, or editing, I'd love to help. Feel free to drop by my office in Room 227!
