Box Hill Tafe, Melbourne
Wed, 26 Aug 2009, 11:47 amHi,
I was just wondering if anyone knew how good the Live Production ( Thechnical theatre) course at Box Hill Tafe was?
More in the respect of a) if you have this qulification are you at a higher chance of getting a job in the industry? ie. Do people in the industry actually recoginse this diploma?
or
b) Is it possible it would be a better step into Nida?
Thanks
I don't know anyone who has
Wed, 26 Aug 2009, 06:36 pmI don't know anyone who has done it, but as far as I know it's got a good reputation. I would head to www.alia.com.au and ask around their forums; someone there might have done it. (If you don't know, the site is run by the Australasian Lighting Industry Assoc. and is frequented by techies)
I don't know if the course would get you more employment, but hving some sort of qualification is definitely a must, given that you're working with a lot of equipment that requires knowledge of safe working practices. I don't believe though that it would be easier to get into NIDA with that kind of qualification though: you'd need the TAFE course plus lots of professional/amateur experience too.
Have you considered other more well-known courses?
