Syllabus

• Praktická aplikace teoreitických i praktických znalostí a dovedností:
  - plánování projektu a jeho pozice v rámci dramaturgického plánu daného divadla,
  - účast na tvorbě světelného konceptu s režisérem a scénografem,
  - navrhování technického řešení světelného konceptu ve vztahu k divadelnímu provozu,
  - bezpečnostní a požární zabezpečení při přípravě a samotné realizaci světelného konceptu,
  - personální zajištění uměleckého scénického projektu s ohledem na organizační strukturu divadla,
  - operativní řízení komunikačních a informačních toků, týmová dynamika uměleckého týmu.
  Student je součástí kreativního týmu (přičemž nelze pevně stanovit modelovou strukturu týmu – v různé míře jsou zapojeni studenti, pedagogové a profesionálové na tvůrčích pozicích). Tento tým vytváří divadelní inscenaci v prostředí školního divadla, které simuluje profesionální divadelní instituci včetně organizačních procesů.
  Při vlastním praktickém scénickém výkonu student respektuje povinnosti jevištního technologa, jež jsou stanoveny dokumentem Opora pro výkony realizované ve vnitřním prostředí DF JAMU (specializace Jevištní technologie).
  Výsledkem je praktická realizace uměleckého scénického projektu, tzn. veřejně a opakovaně prezentovaná divadelní inscenace, která je součástí veřejné nabídky školního divadla v rámci jedné sezony a za kterou umělecký tým odpovídá dramaturgické radě dané sezóny.
