ENVI 224 Performance

College of Art, Media & Design CAMD College-wide

3 credits 90.0 hours
200 level undergraduate course

Allowing students to combine and work across disciplines, this course will explore elements of the evolving practice of performance ranging from everyday experiences to the use of highly stylized artifice and illusion in choreographed drama. The course focuses on an awareness of time, characterization, silence and sound, scene structure, chaos and order, the power of patterns, and the use of color, light and shadow. Works created may be live performance, or performative using means such as video, photography, costume, objects, sculpture and installation. Skills involve developing concentration, timing, confidence, awareness of dramatic structure and acting styles, and expanding imaginative vocabulary and experiences.
