This course develops a program of integrated production methods that span production budgeting and management, scheduling and the integration of a suite of production technologies into the development of screen based programs. Students are introduced to detailed elements of the production process, such as the management of budgets, production personnel and resources, as well as the realization of creative ideas at a range of budget points. The balance of creative vision with the real world constraints of production is explored, along with the costing and scheduling of production. Students are further introduced to the possibilities of a range of production technologies that extend the creative possibilities of digital production such as compositing and effects tools, different lighting tools and production tools that extend the possibilities of low budget production. A workshop exercise is integral to the course, with all students completing a collaborative project that integrates the principles taught in the course.
