Beginning Theatre
This class is an introduction to the Theatre Arts. We learn the basics of improvisation, voice, movement, and we perform one show for our preschool. You will also become familiar with the basics of the acting on the stage and the many different parts of a production. This class will help you communicate with confidence and understand the world through the lens of the theatre.
Prerequisite: None

Intermediate Theatre
The purpose of this class is to give students authentic experiences in and a deeper understanding of Theater Arts. We will study accents and dialects, pantomime/movement; voice and diction, storytelling, basic Technical Theater (lights, sound, etc).

Advanced Theatre
This is Hard Core Theatre! We prepare for competitions, produce 1-acts, and put on one full length play during the year. This class is not for sissys! This is a class about specialization: advanced technical theatre, stage management, structure and analysis, design, acting methods, play writing auditioning, college and career preparation. The students direct each other in this class and run the production. We also study the history of Theatre.
Prerequisite: Intermediate Theatre.

Technical Theatre
Not interested in being on the stage? Prefer the dark shadows of the corners of the stage. This class is for you. Technical theatre is for artists, builders, painters, computer specialists, makeup artists, costumers, leaders, stage managers, etc. Technical theatre class will give you a taste of the lucrative and fun profession in theater.

Film 1
Students learn the basic skills to create a film. Using Flip Cameras and iMovie students will write a storyboard, film, edit, and show their film in class. This is a great class for students who want to work with computer, work in groups, and create movies.
Film 2
Students will apply the skills they learned in Film 1 to more challenging projects using different cameras and editing software that they used in Film 1. Students will be using Final Cut Pro to edit their films and using more than one camera to ensure a variety of shot styles with every film. A variety of film competitions will be offered for students to participate in as well.
Video Productions
This film class focuses on making the announcements for school. You will have needed to pass Film 1 successfully to take this class. You will be working in small groups to film events and news at the school. If you enjoy attending BLHS activities and sharing with your peers about what is going on at school then this is the class for you. You will need to feel comfortable filming and editing footage quickly in order to broadcast the announcements at school.
