Communication 331 - Program Process In TV

This course introduces concepts and techniques of television production through weekly lectures and lab meetings. During the course students work on two major projects: first, a short, narrative piece shot in single-camera, post-production style; and, second, a multiple camera piece shot live in the studio.

Open to Senior, Junior and Sophomore Communication majors only with testing agreement During the first six weeks basic concepts and techniques are introduced in lecture. Students then break up into lab groups where, under the supervision of their lab instructor, they produce a short program which puts the concept of the week to work.
