THEA 459Theatre Portfolio & Business Practices II
THEA 459 Theatre Portfolio & Business Practices II (1) This course is designed to prepare the student of design for life as a professional theatre designer. There are many challenges to working in the business of design, arising primarily from the fact that most theatre designers are self-employed. It's not enough to be a talented designer; one must also be a savvy business person. Contracts, taxes, record-keeping, resumes, portfolios, interviewing, job hunting, and legal considerations will all be addressed, as they relate to life as a freelance designer. Special attention will be paid to the assembly of a professional portfolio & website, which is the centerpiece of any modern designers' work.
