TPA - Audiovisual Production Technology

The course covers basic technologies in audiovisual (AV) production from an engineering perspective. The basics of operation (operator view) in AV production scenarios are briefly introduced. The aim is introducing students to production environments while acquiring skills for the design, installation, configuration and maintenance of production rooms and equipment (engineering view). The contents follow the signal path through the production chain, departing from technical design of sets –acoustics, lighting–, analyzing equipment and functions along the production path –sensors, channels, processing, recording, playback and monitoring– and ending up in AV display and monitoring.

One of the assignments of the course is to produce a short video.

The videos produced by TPA students are available here.
