  <abstract>&lt;p&gt;The specialized Master of Arts in Interdisciplinary Studies concentration in video-based production has an emphasis on video production encompassing various components such as teleconferencing, interactive video, and digital editing. As low end, high quality video equipment becomes more affordable, more organizations (profit and nonprofit) invest in "in-house" production studios and staff. Their video needs include traditional videography, teleconferencing, interactive video techniques, digital video editing, and multimedia, to name a few. The MAIS video-based production concentration brings together various courses which are components of the video production world, and the interdisciplinary degree is an ideal way to integrate course work with an applied final project focusing on video based technologies.&lt;/p&gt;</abstract>
