KEVP, I agree with the idea of contacting people in the field. But craft is not art. You need to build everything from the ground up. So I guess I agree with calore02’s assumptions because BFA programs in tech theater are highly structured. It’s not a matter of knowing how to make costumes, it’s a matter of knowing how to make costumes using a set of established techniques. One of the reasons that the graduates of a particular school will hire other grads from the same school is that they each know how the other was trained and therefore they can count on a certain level of expertise.
