ENTP 558T Creative Project Building - The Journey
Music is a powerful tool to bridge differences and lift up audiences. While we live in a time with seemingly insurmountable challenges, one of an artist’s primary responsibilities - now more than ever - is to contribute to a better world. You have an idea for your own artistic project outside of NEC’s walls, but how do you actually make it happen? In this course, students will be supported to think deeply about their goals and learn how to develop a plan to support an artistic project of their own choosing. The course will explore how artistic projects are conceived, developed, and planned, and provide students with an opportunity to design plans for their own projects. In addition to a final presentation representing a student’s cumulative thinking about the steps needed to achieve his or her identified goals, student learning will be supported by guest speakers, individual advising, constructive feedback from peers and NEC alumni, and assigned readings, viewing, and written reflections.
