Design and Technical Practicum II

Catalog description

This independent study provides the EP student with an advanced practical and carefully evaluated experience related to the crafts of either Scenic, Lighting, or Projection Design or the project management duties of a Technical Director applied to a specific theatrical or event production. The purpose of this directed study is to give the student an opportunity to deepen their experiential activities within this field. Course work will focus on a single production for which the student will either design the relevant technical elements or serve as the Technical Director. This production may be a part of the EP program or for any other student or community-based group. Evaluation of the student’s work will be based upon active and reflective assignments, centered upon the directorial or stage management processes for this production. EP students may take this course no more than two times during their course of studies in order to partially fulfill their EP Electives requirements and deepen their practical abilities, but only with advisor approval. This approval will be coordinated with the assigned course instructor to ascertain that the student has successfully completed the requisite courses demanded by their chosen skill set. Prerequisite(s): EP 441 and College Level=Senior.
