Module: scenic design Explanation: Or scenography, stage design, set design or production design. This term differs depending on which side of the Atlantic you're on. The definition you've found appears to be the European one, and I assume you're writing for a North American readership. Either way, the translation will be the same - it's just that their responsibilities are different. "Scenic design (also known as scenography, stage design, set design or production design) is the creation of theatrical, as well as film or television scenery... "In Europe and Australia, scenic designers take a more holistic approach to theatrical design and will often be responsible not only for scenic design but costume, lighting and sound and are referred to as theatre designers or scenographers or production designers."

Stagecraft Information Course Description: This course will provide the student with the opportunity to experience, understand, analyze and create all aspects of technical theatre production. Particular emphasis will be placed on developing skills needed by crew members in play production. This class will take students from script analysis, through research, conceptualization, planning, and technical production techniques. Areas specifically covered will include scenic design and construction, stage lighting, sound design, and property building. Students will be introduced to stage make-up, costuming and public relations. https://www.vianney.com/empoweren24613.html Stagecraft is the technical aspect of theatrical, film, and video production. It includes constructing and rigging scenery, hanging and focusing of lighting, design and procurement of costumes, makeup, procurement of props, stage management, and recording and mixing of sound. Stagecraft is distinct from the wider umbrella term of scenography. Considered a technical rather than an artistic field, it is primarily the practical implementation of a designer's artistic vision. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stagecraft |
