Module Content

Outline Syllabus:
This module progresses your individual creativity in the creation of a personal performance piece of your choosing. You can generate an original work and realise this as part of a ‘scratch’ or ‘R&D’ process. You are required to undertake critical, and cultural research according to your chosen subject area/theme and realise the technical demands of your chosen performance projects whilst making adjustments to realise this work with both invention and originality. You will consider a variety of creative processes to achieve your goal, including potential target audiences/demographics and its reception, as well as the self-management and interpersonal skills requirements to achieve an original created work. The consolidation of critical, contextual, and cultural perspectives, pragmatic personal, interpersonal and enterprise skills, and practical creation skills is core to the module delivery.
Module Overview:
This module delivers the opportunity to research, create, and present a project such as a script submission, play reading, short film, screening or performance. You will investigate cultural perspectives, unearthing objective debates around studied materials and the creation of your own, bringing together research, theory, and practice. Also, you will enhance your business knowledge and industry skills, including project planning, target audiences and audition technique to contribute to both your actors process and personal practice.
