Synopsis:

Specific nature of creative work of authors, dramaturges and directors for radio.

Prerequisites:

Students are familiarized with the basic terms of theatrology and learn the foundations of theatrical dramaturgy and directing. They are prepared to differentiate between the expressive means of different media that drama has adapted to.

Directing and dramaturgy students are familiarized with:

1) the basic audio drama and verbal genres,

2) the foundations of radio drama creation,

3) the basics of the dual broadcasting system,

4) problems of creating programming,

5) an outline of the history of Czech radio broadcasting;

6) through listening at seminars, students learn to reflect on audio depiction;

7) through small listening exercises they learn to see with their ears.

Outline and Syllabus:

2) Monophonic, live broadcasting, recording, montage, sterophonic sound, digital recording;

3) Czech audio dramas: Kareš, Kožík, Strejčková, Ptáček, Vyskočil, Uhde, Aškenazy, Stehlík, Fischerová, Steigerwald, Přidal, Vedral, Ruth et al.

Syllabus:

This cycle of lectures and seminars gradually introduces students to problems specific to radio. About half of listening is of radio classics, and the rest covers contemporary works. Students are led to listen critically as a basis for the ability to perform basic analysis of broadcasting and to write criticism of the broadcasted dramatic programme. Shorter seminar exercises familiarize them with the restricted means of expression of radio for adaptation of theatrical texts for radio or for attempts at radio dramatization. Those with a deeper interest in radio are allowed to attend lectures on making (or creating) audio plays at Czech Radio studios.
