Overall Educational Objective | To learn to collaborate during a multi-disciplinary production process and to create a holistic design. | ||||
Course Description | Production design is to develop a specific visual language for a given script, text or content for film. It aims to create a unique look via conceptualizing of film elements such as location, décor, props, light, costumes, hair and make up, color and texture to tell the story to its true essence. It aims to translate the words of a script to build a material world for the story. This unique language leads the director, producer, cinematographer, art director along with the rest of the production team to communicate by staying on the same page visually. |
Course Learning Outcomes and CompetencesUpon successful completion of the course, the learner is expected to be able to:1) create a visual package to tell a story of a material to its best essence with various presentation methods; 2) communicate with the members of production via visual language; 3) know other specialization fields; 4) understand the essentials of physical elements such as: décor, location, props, light, costumes, hair and make up; 5) comprehend professional filmmaking and stage production processes and possibly specialize in the art industry. |
