(Read More...)
Directing introduces students to the professional world of live television production. The course considers different content and styles of television production, and explores methods of creating live content for a variety of audiences. Students work in crew positions such as producers, camera operators, directors, floor directors and other key creative positions as well as serving as the talent for live productions throughout the year. Assignments include broadcast coverage of concerts, plays, pageants, etc. and subsequent critique of those events.
This course will prepare students to create a professional broadcast of live events throughout the community. In addition, students will learn to work as both a leader and member of a production team in a studio and remote environment.
Projects from last year included the production of a television game show - Warrior Family Feud; live streaming of the Homecoming Parade, the Miss THS Pageant, and the Talent Show; and DVD production of several plays produced by the Thompson Theatre Department.
