Production 3
In this course students will continue the learning process from both Production 1 and 2 while collaborating on live-action or multi camera productions.
Projects will consist of both external industrial productions, such as music videos, commercials etc., and projects based on own ideas.
The goal is that the finished products should exhibit a quality matching industry standards.

The objective with the internship program is to give students the opportunity to combine work experience with studies in a manner that enhances their learning in both situations. By working in an enterprise, the students get to use theories and models they have learnt at NORD to solve practical tasks. This brings forth the relevance of the academic knowledge. At the same time, the course gives them the opportunity to systematically reflect on their practical work experiences. This prepares them for working life. The business community gets access to updated academic knowledge, able hands and the opportunity to address their needs for new knowledge as they prepare the internship activities for their interns. The student is responsible for finding an internship company.
In this course students will continue the learning process from both Production 1 and 2 and learn more about collaboration on live-action or multi camera productions. Based on their preferred specialization, the following departments are established: Production; Writing & Directing; Cinematography & Postproduction; Sound.
One student per department will take the role as Department Lead, under supervision by a dedicated faculty member per department.
Concepts for Main Live Action Production will determine the activity of all departments in the 1sthalf, to be viewed as Pre-Production. Here, each department will identify technical, artistic, logistic or storytelling challenges present in the Main Production concept(s) and Research and Develop solutions to these challenges, by testing them out on external industrial productions, such as music videos, commercials etc.
This activity builds towards one or more Main Live Action Production (TV-show pilot, short fiction, live TV-show e.g.), to be executed in the 2nd half of the semester.
