This course introduces students to the producing functions in the arts and media management. The course will cover the genesis of creative and managing producers in the media and hybrid or emergent creative environments, exploring the basis of being a producer for media programs and companies (e.g., internet, television, radio and some music industry and social media environments), for arts and media creative hubs, and for primarily non-profit performing arts sites in Canada (e.g., presenting producers for multi-disciplinary arts venues that host touring companies).
