AutoCAD I

AutoCAD Semester 1 is a project-oriented approach
to learning the fundamentals of drafting with
AutoCAD. This course is primarily intended for
entering MFA and BFA technical direction students
and scene designers, though it is open to all
students as space allows. The goal of this course
is to train students to facilitate visual
communication between Technical Directors,
Designers, Scenic Carpenters and the entire
production team and will be geared toward that
end. We will be working with the current versions
of AutoCAD (2007-09). Students will be encouraged
to expand on the familiarity of the software
gained in class lessons by applying it to
specific projects within their metier. Students
will learn to draw increasingly complex 2D
objects and how to visually communicate them by
the use of layouts, templates, dynamic blocks,
dimensioning, scaling and sheet sets and
e-transmission.

There may be additional fees associated with this
course for supplies, books, or other materials.
For more specific costs please view the syllabus
or speak with the instructor.
