- Class Description:
- Television is arguably the most influential form of mass media both as entertainment and information. The producer's choices in content and production aesthetics shape the message of this critical medium. Producing For Television will present the production process as a series of steps that transform media content based on audience, thematic design and story concept. Students will consider the aesthetic decisions necessary in developing a television program. They will write a script, complete preproduction planning and consider their crew and talent needs for their television program, along with exploring their social responsibilities as a media producer. Students are expected to have an understanding of cinematic grammar, the aesthetic elements of video production and how they shape media content, and knowledge of video and editing equipment. This class will also create an opportunity for students to present their production design and scripts to a group for critique and feedback as they work through the preproduction process and script development in preparation to the shoot and edit their television program. COMM 3201 and 3204 are prerequisites
