Blog 7: Changes to my study programme

hello!

I'm in my second year studying Theatre Design and only started having face-to-face classes in the middle of this year, so my experience is a bit unusual. That's why I would change certain things in the study programme according to my experience. For example, I think that classes on digital tools like photoshop should be included in the first year because it is very useful and can be used for many things and aspects of design.

The course load is very heavy, the duration of the classes is long and the work we have to do outside of class hours needs a lot of time and dedication to be able to complete them properly. Regarding the years of study, I think it is fine, but perhaps to have less workload, the length of the course could be extended by one year.

I am very fond of the Theater Department, where I do my degree, it is a very nice heritage building, but it needs too much maintenance, I am concerned about some electrical connections and that especially in pandemic we have very little space for students. This semester when classes started in person, it was necessary to have adequate equipment to be able to record the classes so that colleagues from other regions could see the classes, which did not work very well, since they could not be heard.

In general, the teaching methods are good, but I think that in the theoretical part, it would be good if the professors could implement a new method.

Blog 5: A job you would like to have in the future

 Hi everyone, I've always dreamed of working in the audiovisual medium, like in music videos, series or movies designing the visual world of a production, so being an art director would be like a dream.  What I like about working as an art director, is to be able to create and design the visual style that a project requires, to think about the details and what can be communicated through them, the idea of being able to define the color palette, the materialities, the silhouette of the costumes, for the universe of each project, I love it. I think my career develops a very similar work when you have to create a design proposal that covers all areas for a play, working from a concept that unifies the costumes, space and lighting.  Some useful skills for the art director are the ability to work in a team, to be able to communicate ideas effectively, to have diverse references, to know about composition, color theory, materialities, as well as having the ability to solve prob...

Blog 6: Time travel to the future

Thinking about the future has always intrigued me, although I think the idea of knowing what is going to happen takes the fun out of life.  Also, I think it's inevitable to think about what will happen with climate change and pollution, all that uncertainty causes me a bit of anxiety and depresses me especially because of the UN announcement that there is no return... But if I could travel to the future, I think I would like to go to the time when travel in the universe is already possible.  I have always been fascinated by the universe, its immensity and how little we know about it. When I see movies about traveling to other planets or galaxies it makes me very curious. If I could travel the universe I would like to go to the Andromeda galaxy because it is the closest. Although it is said that in 4 billion years Andromeda will eat our galaxy, I want to imagine that space travel will be possible before that happens and that the Andromeda galaxy will only be closer.  I wou...
