The focus of this subject is for the class to successfully produce a public performance of a musical. Content includes planning the show, organising copyright and licensing, managing auditions, setting cast roles, booking a venue, marketing and promotions, establishing a band or orchestra, creating and participating in a rehearsal schedule, making sets and blocking the stage, using sound equipment, and managing the financial budget of the musical. Students will need to work individually, as well as collaboratively, demonstrating both leadership and team-work skills. Engaging with local community members, as well as applying skills and content from HM6017, will be key to producing a high-quality and successful performance.

Music Performance- Years 1, 2, 3 - Semester Two, 2022

A professional writing career requires solid adaptability and an awareness of what can be done. In order to push writers into areas they may have previously avoided, the genre study will present two very distinct but very different genres; Speculative fiction (Sci-Fi and fantasy etc) and traditional romance. Students will study the expectations and possibilities of both genres, the differences and the similarities, and create works that will fit within both genres. They will discuss works within the genres and explore industry and academic perspectives on the genres, their effectiveness and their popularity.
