This is an advanced studio practice module in scenography and theatre design that seeks to develop the ethos of visible–thinking and documenting through practical exploration, extending the students’ employability skillset and preparing them for professional practice. At the end of their second year students electing to take this module will begin discussions with the course tutor to consider and construct a scenographic research question that will be addressed and answered through the study and realisation of one strand from the scenographic threads: Space/ Body/ Light/ Sound. The student will be expected to engage in the shared culture of studio practice whilst pursuing their own individual project. As such this module demands a great degree of self direction and self regulation, which offers further preparation for professional practice.

The module also offers students the opportunity to critically reflect upon and contextualise their chosen area of specialisation within contemporary scenographic practice.

The students will conceive and create a scenographic exploration to be installed or exhibited as appropriate in response to the research question established at the start of the module. The research question will also form the basis for the critical portfolio and viva which will form the second part of the assessment.

1x2hr weekly session with group and individual tutorials.
