The Level 3 Extended Diploma in Performing and Production Arts is a stimulating, advanced and demanding qualification designed to allow you to explore, develop and test your creativity, and gain an in-depth knowledge and understanding of performing arts as a collaborative activity. This is a two year programme and is the equivalent of 3 A levels, so is perfect for those of you looking to progress directly to Higher Education.
Through collaborative learning and immersive study, you will take your performance and production skills to the next level, while continuing to learn how to use your body and voice in performance, engage with elements of design and technology, and entertain and inform your audience. This course will develop your skills in the use of voice and vocal manipulation, dance and movement, theatre and mime, text and dialogue, mask design and use, design for performance (including sets, costumes and lights), and technical management. The Level 3 Extended Diploma will also provide you with the opportunity to explore specialist study and context.
More than just developing your technical and creative skills, you will also gain a deeper knowledge of the theories and principles of performing arts, increase your understanding of the industry as a whole, and develop the confidence and skills you'll need to succeed in real-world auditions and interviews. You will learn about professional practice standards, critical and contextual awareness, and the expectations of the professional world of performance and production.
So, whether your future lies on stage or screen, behind the scenes or in-front of an audience, or in performing or producing, the Level 3 Extended Diploma in Performing and Production Arts can help set the stage for your future career journey, and fully prepare you for a life in the performing arts.
