Course Description

This course is designed to give students a solid introduction to the processes involved in successful technical direction. The technical director is part engineer, part manager, part designer and full-time problem solver. We'll delve into problem solving (making the magic happen), budgeting (of time, money and talent), structural design (how to make things not fall down, unless you want them to), drafting (it's different for technical directors) and project management (how to plan an effective build, load-in and strike). Student will serve as Assistant Technical Directors for our mainstage shows, and some production work will be involved. This class will serve as a production contract for students enrolled in THTR 1087. Students with a working knowledge of a computer aided drafting program such as AutoCAD or Vectorworks should see instructor and/or advisor for approval.
