Production Crew Externship

Catalog description

Students develop the practical skills and fundamental knowledge for entry-level job positions in professional film and television through hands-on experience when placed in a dedicated craft-specific Externship under the direction of a graduate thesis candidate from one of the GFC graduate programs. The course emphasizes career development through student-specific, on-the-job training and in required weekly lessons that include instructor-led resume and interview training sessions. GFA 2100 is the lower-level option of GFA 4100 . Whenever possible, students should take the 3000/4000-level GFA course option. The 4000-level counterpart has additional academic rigor, including creative projects and the study of history and theory of the craft. Students cannot take both the 2000- and 3000/4000-level option of equivalent courses. Either the 2000- or 3000-level course would satisfy the prerequisite for its related 4000-level course. If pursuing the Nexus, the 3000/4000-level upper-division course is required. Pursuing the 2000-level course will not result in a Nexus degree, but may be used towards GFA certification.
