Prerequisite to this course is TL11. This course offers an immediate, intensive, hands-on introduction to the art and technology of creative television production within the structure of Fairfield's HAM Channel. Students receive intensive instruction on creative and aesthetic use of the tools and elements of television - cameras, audio, lighting, editing, set design, and program development - and participate in a series of projects completed individually and with partners. They learn the structure and operation of the HAM channel and participate in the production of a regularly scheduled program that will be aired on the HAM channel during the semester. This course counts as a production requirement for the New Media Film Television and Radio major/minor, and fulfills an application requirement for the Visual and Performing Arts core.
