THRT 3543 - Lighting Design

This course explores the steps in the lighting design process and how effective lighting enhances the quality of a realistically styled theatrical production. This is achieved through the student’s effective use of the terminology, instrumentation, equipment, and software programs such as Vectorworks and Lightwright. To support the student’s ability to recognize and describe the characteristics and qualities of light, students create lighting journals that document their skills in this area. The projects and journals from this course will be compiled so that they may be effective portfolio pieces that promote their talents.
