THE 402 Stage Lighting, Electricity, and Technology
This course is an introduction to the skills needed to realize and utilize lighting, electricity, and other relevant technology needs for the stage.
Light is an art form, while light itself is both a study of chemistry and physics. Through scientific exploration of light, students will understand the principles with aspects such as the speed of light and its perception. The control and manipulation of light with electricity will also be studied through electrical theory. In controlling light, it can translate to artistry and storytelling. Telling stories with light can be found in all art forms, and students will explore and identify the possibilities.
Further emphasis will be placed on learning basic vocabulary and equipment used all areas of technology, including lights, sound, and projections, in mounting a staged production.
