THTR 236 - Special Effects for the Theater

FDR: HA Fine Arts Distribution
Credits: 3

Additional course fee required, for which the student is responsible after Friday of the 7th week of winter term. Do you like practical effects from films? Do you like to find creative solutions to problems? In this hands-on, project-based course, students apply the process of iterative design and use critical thinking to provide ingenious solutions to solve the artistic effects required to tell stories in theater. Starting with textual analysis of given scripts, students develop the parameters required for various effects, and through a process execute practical rehearsal and final effect solutions for a show. No prior theater experience is required. Lab fee.
