Upon completion, students will be knowledgeable in: style and changes in costume evolution, effective research techniques, setting up production costume shops, drafting basic patterns, constructing garments, interpreting designer's sketches, organizing and maintaining costume stock, dyeing textiles and ageing costumes, running crew for stage performances, preparation and care of costumes - fittings and alterations, on-set procedures for costume continuity - dressing performers, as well as script breakdown and analysis for costuming requirements. | | |
