What do assistant directors, production managers, and producers do? How do they set budgets, keep track of costs, measure time spent, and manage resources? And what are a production’s legal parameters and ramifications? Welcome to a crash course in the details that give a production legs and keep it moving forward.

Directing Actors
How do directors get the most out of each actor? How canthey help actors to give the performance the story needs? Students examine the role and responsibilities of the director in each of the phases of directing actors: scripting, casting, and creative work with the actors, and communicating effectively with the actors in order to achieve a specific vision.

Script Supervision
If everyone hates you, you are doing it right. Script supervision is one of the most essential and thankless tasks on a film set. But a good script supervisor is worth whatever you need to pay. Script supervisors often create and review all pre-production paper work,in addition to their real job: watching every move actors make and listening to every word they speak. If takes don’t match, editors can’t edit. Production has wasted time and money...mainly money.
Eliminating such waste is the reason script supervisors are among the privileged few who can immediately approach directors and cinematographers and sound mixers on set. If you aredetail oriented, work well under pressure, and keep cool while your comrades are slowly losing their minds, you qualify. (Internships available as CSU productions demand.)

Color Theory
The classic film, The Wizard of Oz, made obvious the impact of color. Why is Dorothy’s everyday world colorless and flat, yet her fantasy is vivid and alive? What does the stylistic choice tell us about Dorothy’scharacter, dreams, hopes, her story? These and other aspects of color, its effects on our perceptions and reception of film, are addressed in this course
