FTVM 317 is for students involved in WOLV TV and is designed to support and supplement the work students already do with WOLV with technical workshops, professional development, and advice sessions with WOLV alumni, rather than an attempt to control or shape WOLV’s autonomous functioning. Work on WOLV-TV is a required part of the class and critical analysis of WOLV shows will be an important aspect of the course work. Depending on the needs of students in the class, instruction may also include technical studio workshops (production, lighting, sound, editing), student presentations, show and segment pitch assignments, studio pilot production, directing/production practice, and guest artists or visitors (in person or via Skype).
Course Requirements:
Assessment is based on group show pitch (10%), pilot production (30 %), student's work with WOLV and critical reflection papers, (30%), group presentation (15 %), attendance and participation (15%).
Intended Audience:
Registration by permission of instructor. Students MUST be working with WOLV TV in order to take this course.
Class Format:
The course will meet one evening per week for 4 hours.
