Production Management & Film Accounting

Catalog description

Students will be prepared to step into the production office with a basic understanding of how it functions and how production interacts with all departments. The accounting component of this course will focus on the guidelines and reporting practices that are used to track and manage the finances of a production. Practical elements will be created through the use of actual production software and scenario simulations. The course is intended for students who wish to understand the larger importance of how the Production Office and Production Accounting departments affect production with effective communication, organization and problem-solving skills. Students cannot take both the 2000 and 3000/4000- level option of equivalent GFA courses. Either the 2000 or 3000-level course can be used towards GFA certification.
