Prerequisite: Admission into the television and journalism specialization of the master's program in journalism and mass communication. A workshop devoted to the presentation of TV news and features, particularly when "on camera". The prime focus of the course is to develop an awareness of how skeletal-muscular-respiratory organization can inhibit or promote vocal tone resonance and articulation, and to provide the physical experiences necessary to promote improvement in posture and breathing. The course provides the means whereby unconscious, inappropriate personal habits i.e. grimace, frown, nervous gesture can be brought to consciousness and gradually eliminated. Particular attention will be given to developing unobtrusive and clear enunciation in English. |
