Advanced Television Production Workshop

Catalog description

This course will give real world experience in the rigors of producing a single camera episodic television drama. Working under the supervision of a UGFTV faculty member these mini-pilots will be shot on an Alexa mini camera package. The productions will take place in studio, on location and involve collaboration with actors from the Drama Department. Students in this class will produce two 30-minute dramatic pilots selected from open script submissions by a faculty committee. While most students enrolling in the course are expected to meet the stated prerequisite of one Intermediate level production course, students enrolling in craft positions may qualify for enrollment by permission of the Instructor, with approval from the Area Head, if they have completed at least two semesters of Sight & Sound and can demonstrate experience in the craft capacity they will hold in the class. The Showrunner and Director for Advanced Television Production must have taken an Intermediate Production class. COURSE SUBJECT TO DEPARTMENTAL FEES.
