Scene Painting
Graduate study
The program trains students in the craft, artistry and management of scenic painting for careers in the entertainment industry. The curriculum balances extensive classroom and studio work with practical experience. It includes progressively rigorous instruction in the fundamentals of drawing and production procedures, as well as the artistry of the craft of the painting scenic elements. Students work on several fully mounted productions each year on the school's large paint deck, equipped with adjacent mixing and support areas. They learn to work in a variety of techniques including older theatrical media and to manipulate various materials to achieve the desired effect. At the culmination of the training period, students have full responsibility for productions as scenic charges.
