Design and Media Scenography Lab

Catalog description

Students will learn how to look at the world with fresh eyes and use imagination to create a theatrical world on stage. This course will cover the fundamental ideas of scenic design and basic design technique, such as research, drawing, and scale-model making. We will start from small exercise projects and complete a final design project at the end of the course. This course will design semester projects for the theatre program. Students will present most of the projects to the class, followed by questions and comments from the fellow students. Presentation and critique skills will be important in this course. Students interested in other aspects of theatre making, as well as visual arts or architecture, and with no prior experience will be able to learn from the basics. Lighting Lab
