Overview

U2 on tour. The Grammys. Cats. Ice Capades. Halftime at the Superbowl. The Tournament of Roses Parade. All of these have one thing in common: a team of people working behind the scenes to make sure the show goes on as planned, everything happening on cue. Welcome to the exciting world of show production!

Show production encompasses everything from set design to audio to lighting to multimedia, with a thousand different details in between. As a student of show production, you’ll learn it all. You’ll discover the secrets behind every successful show, from large-scale stadium events to small-stage plays. You’ll learn about multimedia, video backdrops, fog machines and pyrotechnics, and the latest computer technologies designed to synchronize them in perfect accompaniment to whatever is being said, sung or played onstage. All of these components become paints on your palatte, and you’ll learn how to use each of them to create an audio/visual work of art that audiences can enjoy. It’s a career choice that requires hard work, but one that’s very rewarding, too. Get ready—it’s almost showtime!

  • Tuition Costs Are Rising At Unprecedented Rates

    http://www.schoolsforme.net

    The headline says it all.  Tuition costs have escalated to the point where students are demonstrating.  In fact, it's not unusual for a student to graduate from school hundreds of thousands of dollars in debt.

    This makes it imperative to spend some time choosing the right school to help you achieve your goals.  Sadly, in this age of hyper-inflated tuition costs, a college degree does not guarantee a job, much less a career.

    One strategy that is often overlooked when choosing a school is to talk to people who are successful in the career you want to pursue.  If you don't know anyone in your chosen field, you can often find much of this valuable information online.

    The more entrepreneurial individual might go so far as to enroll in the "University of Hard Knocks" and just go for it.  The reasoning is simple: he can start his career behind the wheel of a Bentley, instead of owing his college what a Bentley costs by the time he graduates.

    We're by no means advocating dropping out of school, or not pursuing an education.  However, we are advocating that you look before you leap.

    The MBA in the corner office, fresh out of business school with a six-figure paycheck, is a standard trope of Corporate America. Every incoming student has heard rags-to-riches tales of that gilded certification leading to giant paychecks and even bigger bonuses. But how often do these MBA fairy tales actually come true? According to new research: not as often as you think.Read more »
