Art Supplies

SCENE DESIGN
DRAMA 3313 Gilliam

PROJECT SUPPLIES: Class projects will require a variety of art supplies. Not all the listed supplies may be obtained at the Trinity Bookstore. You may find the supplies are more expensive on campus than by shopping at the several local art supply stores (Herwicks, Azels, Crafts Etc., Michaels, Etc.). Regardless, do plan to budget for supplies throughout the semester. Failure to complete an assignment because you could not afford to purchase the appropriate supplies is like failure to pass the midterm because you could not afford to buy the textbook. You may want to obtain all the supplies on this list now to avoid budgetary problems in the future.

OFFICE SUPPLIES

Some projects may require special presentation to best represent artistic content. Presentation may be considered the external appearance of the creative idea as appropriate dress creates a favorable impression of the talents you offer during an interview.
