    BA Programs in Stage Design

    A BA, or Bachelor of Arts, is an undergraduate degree that typically takes from three to four years to complete. You will usually start out with a more general education, specializing in a field of study as you move on in the program.

    What is a BA in Stage Design? A Bachelor of Arts in Stage Design teaches students how to use their creativity to set a stage and/or design costumes for a production. It involves learning and honing technical skills in model-making, drawing, storyboarding and computer-aided design. Stage design programs give students an understanding of acting and production as well as the ability to communicate with the people in charge of those areas and with the artisans who will be carrying out their designs. Graduates must understand how to use all the elements at their disposal to create the proper mood for the given performance and the vision of the director and producer.

    All of the skills taught in this type of program are essential for being able to carry out professional design work. In addition, a bachelor’s program teaches the kind of communication that is absolutely vital to the production’s success, making graduates much more marketable than someone who merely has innate creativity.

    The cost of a degree will depend on the institution chosen and the length of the program. Costs can often be lowered by opting for an online course of study.

    A BA in Stage Design prepares students to design sets and costumes in live theater, film or television, all of which require the ability to properly create the ambiance of the scene in which the actors will perform. Among the types of companies that hire for this skill set are movie- and television-production companies, theater groups, advertising agencies and event-production companies.
