The course provides technically skilled and creative students with a broad knowledge of theatre in general, a specialised theoretical and practical knowledge of play production and highly specialised vocational training in property construction.

APPROACH:

The Production Crafts course emphasises vocational skills. Skills are taught through a close integration of formal class work, practical workshop experience and assignments within the NIDA Play Production Program.
As production crafts specialists are responsible for planning, constructing and maintaining the properties for the stage, television or film production, the course also provides a good working knowledge of the production process, as well as a broad understanding of dramatic literature.
