Majoring in Theatre Technology

<p>Look for posts by KyndCookie. you will defntely need a portfolio and should begin working on preparation of that now. You’ll find info on what to nclude on various postings on the drama major forums and also search the Internet for some good resources and examples. You will need to interview and present your portfolio so begin checking the websites for schools you are interested in so you can get a jump on securing your interview date Now, some programs are non-interview/audition based, so in those cases, you just apply to the school and that’s it. For audition-based programs, you must be accepted to the major (theatre). Design/tech is very different from SM so investigate each school you’re interested in to make sure the have ample coursework and opportunity for experience in your area of interest Most audition-based programs will let you learn about tech/design and SM the first year and possibly part ofthe second, then after that you designate a concentration and focus on your specialty. When looking at college websites you’ll search for the theatre department and the look for Design and Production.</p>
