Design Methodology | Spring 2023

---

Design Methodology is a core class for all second-semester MFA1 theatre design students. It is an exploration of dramatic structures where students will design a play a week from different time periods. 

The class focuses on the genesis of the visual context of each text. Visual narrative; how dramatic action, the objectives of the characters, and the objectives of the space create consonance and dissonance, conflict and juxtaposition. The goal of the class is for each student to develop a personalized process for discovering their visual ideas in design for performance.
