Program Description
The Associates of Applied Arts (AAS) in Technical Studies: Theatre and Film is a terminal degree designed for students who know they are passionate about theatre and filmmaking. Most theatre programs don’t teach you about film acting or filmmaking. Most film programs don’t teach you about acting or directing actors. This program changes all that. You will experience the best of both worlds and learn how they interact and influence each other. The theatre side of the program provides opportunities to write plays, direct, act, and work in technical capacities. The film side will give you opportunities to practice screenwriting, directing, cinematography, editing, sound recording, and other technical responsibilities. The hallmark of this program is essentially unlimited opportunity to produce original, creative work in theater and film. Upon completion of the degree, students will be prepared for stepping directly into the film and entertainment industry.
