Theatre Arts 127 - Intro Lighting & Sound Design

An introduction to the art and practice of lighting & sound design for the theatre. This course will cover the basic tools and techniques of designing light & sound and provide an understanding of the designer's role in the collaborative process of producing a show. Students will have the opportunity to create their own lighting & sound designs in the Black Box classroom and present them to the class. In addition to class time students are required to complete 24 hours of light prep crew - this is an extension of the class where students will learn how to hang and focus lights, read a light plot, and work as a lighting team on the Theatre Department main stage productions.
