The course surveys the U.S. scripted television industry from pitch to production, examining the showrunner model, writers’ rooms, network vs. streaming structures, and how business realities shape storytelling. It also includes practical insight into career pathways and breaking into the industry, with attention to how streaming has transformed the medium.
Mission Statement
The LSU School of Theatre is dedicated to preparing students of all identities for
professional and academic careers in arts and cultural industries. Providing an inclusive
learning environment as a key to a well-rounded humanities education, we offer a variety
of degrees and concentrations that encourage students to tailor their training to
their creative and scholarly passions and intentions. Graduating students move into
careers and further educational institutions as informed and empowered artists, theorists,
and technicians. The practical skills learned apply not only to the arts but also
to multiple related professions and industries.
Accomplished creative practitioners from all over the world contribute to the School’s
cultural insight and cutting-edge performance tools. Our programming commits to spotlighting
topical issues, celebrating shared social values, and exploring humanity. We work
to honor the experiences, perspectives and unique identities of all our students,
faculty, staff, guest artists and audience. The School also has a unique and significant
place within Louisiana State University and seeks to contribute in a visible way
to the quality of life and economic growth of both the state and the region.
