Newly expanded Boston location boasts
3,000 plus square feet of cutting edge postproduction technology;
full curriculum for Adobe, Apple Avid, and Autodesk
Future Media Concepts (FMC), the premier authorized digital
media training organization for postproduction, broadcast
professionals and content creators, is pleased to announce
the expansion of their Boston office.
Opening on Monday, July 13th, the new 3000 plus square foot
training facility will contain 5 state-of-the-art digital
media training suites; doubling in size and capacity for hosting
instructor-led classes, special industry events and user group
meetings. The new expansion makes FMC Boston one of the largest
manufacturer-authorized digital media training facilities
in New England. The ultra-modern teaching environment is equipped
with the very latest in postproduction and broadcast technology
from Adobe®, Apple®, Avid® and Autodesk.
Customized for training delivery, the new facility provides
an unparalleled learning experience and full curriculum path
for students seeking the highest certification, whether they
are working in TV, Film or Broadcast.
"Students who have gone through an FMC training course
have an exceptional learning experience. They are using the
very latest in postproduction technology and learning from
some of the best digital media trainers in the nation,"
said Jeff Rothberg, President and Co-founder of FMC.
"The New England market is very special. Feature Film
production is up significantly. We have a large creative community
working on a wide range of projects and a rapidly changing
landscape in creative technology. All of this has pushed FMC
Boston enrollment for digital media training and certification
up … way up. The new Cambridge facility located in Kendall
Square will meet the increased demand and students will be
more than pleased to get their hands on the very latest in
Film, TV and content creation technology."
The FMC success story is tied to the authorized training curriculum
and certification programs. With surrounding training facilities
opting for semester-length training classes; editors, compositors
and producers have little opportunity to come up to speed
on the latest techniques unless they discontinue working full-time.
With FMC, students attend an intense 2-5 day course that focuses
on enhancing their skill set while allowing them to continue
working in the field.
Additionally, all FMC instructors are industry-recognized
trainers holding certifications with a multitude of manufacturers,
including: Adobe, Apple, Autodesk, Avid, BorisFX, Digidesign,
NewTek and Softimage.
Highlighting the FMC Boston location is staff instructor Alex
Kaloostian and branch manager, Keri Wilson. A graduate of
the Massachusetts College of Art, Kaloostian majored in a
combination of film, video, photography, web design and robotics.
An Apple and Apple Leopard certified pro, he has many short
films to his credit, both self-produced and among the likes
of MTV Pictures, Turtle Lane Playhouse and The Boston Rock
Opera. Wilson shares in the excitement of the new facility
and increased capacity. Born and raised just outside Boston,
Wilson has a B.S. in Media studies and Digital Culture from
Sacred Heart University.
