Figure Drawing for Theatre Design

SHOW FINAL EXAM SCHEDULE

Credit: 3 hours.

Figure Drawing as a foundation for theatrical design is a somewhat different animal: we may not need to accurately render subtle nuances of the human figure to the extent required for portraiture, but it is imperative to explore and understand fundamental aspects of drawing such as anatomy, volume, proportion, value, negative/positive space, etc. In addition to these skills, students will develop an ability to describe design concept and intention more accurately and expressively. This course strengthens observational and drawing skills while encouraging freedom and experimentation, which are crucial to all design processes.

3 undergraduate hours. 3 graduate hours. May be repeated to a maximum of 9 undergraduate hours and 6 graduate hours in separate semesters. Prerequisite: Consent of instructor. For theatre majors only.

The preference is to meet in-person every Monday from 1pm-3:50 but we will be following guidelines and adjusting as necessary. Weather permitting, we may meet outdoors on a Krannert Center terrace or in the Amphitheater. In these cases, our model will be clothed. In some cases, we may opt to stay at home and live-stream the modeling sessions. In this case, I would work with the model on-site and live-stream the poses and instruction to students in their own home. Students will be encouraged to work standing at an easel. If necessary, easels may be borrowed from campus with advance permission.
