It is the producer's task to make projects happen. The set of skills a producer develops across creative and business spheres synthesises into entrepreneurship. This subject explores the many aspects of creative leadership required of the producer, from identifying and nurturing projects and talent, to collaborating on a creative vision, to the adaptability and resilience required to drive projects from conception to distribution.
Through case studies, workshop discussions and simulated collaborations, students will learn about the principles of leadership, and develop their own artistic voice and ethical approach to the role of creative entrepreneur.
