A1. Planning Documentation

Students will be required to produce a running programme for a stage focussing on an opening, triggers, intermission and ending, applied to a negotiated brief, which details the running order for an opening show. Consideration should be made for the management of pre-production and post-production through the distribution of content through various channels (Learning Outcome 1 and 2).

A.2 Practical Presentation

Students are required to demonstrate components from their stage show programme, including motion graphics, video wall integration, lighting and audio elements, and signal flow (Learning Outcome 3 and 4).

This module explores the complexities of a production studio in a multi-million, industry standard broadcast arena. This module will provide the opportunity for students to develop within the professional pre-production to post-production workflow, building upon knowledge and fundamentals from your previous year of study to utilising more advanced equipment, such as Video Wall Technology, EVS Replay Workflows, content sharing platforms, Dante Audio Technology and the SMPTE 2110 Broadcast Environment.
