Radio and TV Dramaturgy and Scriptwriting – Field of study catalogue JAMU
Radio and TV Dramaturgy and Scriptwriting |
The field’s concept is based on the assumption that the professions of television and radio dramaturge and screenwriter require both specialised training and a broader erudition in the field of cultural history, mass communication and a diverse range of artistic and journalistic genres. The aim of this multi-layered education is to create dramaturges and screenwriters who are technically skilled as well as thoughtful and artistically creative.
Therefore, in addition to lectures on the creation of works from the radio and television genres (including practical exercises with audiovisual technology), the study programme also includes courses focused on the sociology of mass media and culture in general, film typology, art criticism, the history of Czech and world theatre and selected chapters from poetics and literary history. It allows listeners to develop their ability to respond to the specific demands of television and radio from a broader cultural perspective.
In creative writing seminars and in learning about various media genres, students are encouraged to make independent attempts at creating shorter journalistic, prose and dramatic works. Radio and television adaptations of literary works are also paid their fair share of attention. It is precisely with regard to the role the popularisation of theatre, literature and films can play in the media we place emphasis on the fact that students are well versed in these fields and get to know different approaches to interpretation and implementation.
Radio and TV Dramaturgy and Scriptwriting at Faculty of Theatre JAMU allows students to touch upon a number of other fields of dramatic arts, their events and projects. Therefore, they can get an idea of the possibilities of acting not only on stage, but also in front of a camera or microphone. They have the opportunity to write their texts for specific performers and verify how their original idea works in practice.
