Course Description

Summary

An exercise in planning, communication, creativity and resourcefulness, property design applies to film, television, and theatrical production. This course will look at theatrical props and set dressing from a property designer’s perspective. Starting with a script, we will uncover the questions you didn’t know needed answering in order to comprehensively produce or curate props that are functional, period appropriate, and successfully contribute to a production. Coursework will be based on lectures, script analysis, hands on property production in the Drama Department Scene Shop, and peer critiques.
