Description | Designers provide the conceptual foundation for the theatre. The costume designer visualizes the clothes that help the actor bring a character to life. The set designer creates the world in which these characters live and the skills of scene painter brings colour to the stage. The properties designer decorates this world with objects, whether a medieval throne, a double-headed axe or an elegant dining service. The final mood and magic is achieved through the imagination and understanding of the lighting designer.
Our program teaches students the essential skills required to work in today’s theatre industry as well as associated careers in television, cinema, video and mixed media. Designers develop their skills with theoretical and practical courses leading to extensive hands-on production experience with at least six major productions. | | |
