Video design or projection design is a creative field of stagecraft. It is concerned with the creation and integration of film and motion graphics into the fields of theatre, opera, dance, fashion shows, concerts and other live events. Video design has only recently gained recognition as a separate creative field. Prior to this, the responsibilities of video design would often be taken on by a scenic designer or lighting designer. A person who practices the art of video design is often known as a Video Designer. However, naming conventions vary around the world, and so practitioners may also be credited as Projection Designer, "Media Designer", Cinematographer or Video Director (amongst others). As a relatively new field of stagecraft, practitioners create their own definitions, rules and techniques.〔http://www.projctn.com/about-projection-design〕 == History == Filmmaking and video production content has been used in performance for many years,〔http://www.nytimes.com/2008/05/18/theater/18mcelroy.html?partner=rssnyt〕 as has large format slide projection delivered by systems such as the PANI projector.〔http://www.pani.com/unternehmen/daten/e_daten.html?english〕 The German Erwin Piscator, as stage director at the Berlin Volksbühne in the 1920s, made extensive use of film projected onto his sets.〔http://myclone.wordpress.com/2010/01/28/field-guide-to-new-media-for-the-performing-arts/〕 However, the development of digital projection technology in the mid 90s, and the resulting drop in price, made it more attractive and practical to live performance producers, directors and scenic designers. The role of the video designer has developed as a response to this, and in recognition of the demand in the industry for experienced professionals to handle the video content of a production.〔http://livedesignonline.com/theatre/projection_designer_scenic_tony_award_0430/〕 United Scenic Artists' Local 829, the Union representing Scenic Artists in the USA has included "Projection Designers" as of mid- 2007.〔http://www.usa829.org/News.aspx?ItemID=109〕 This means anybody working in this field will be doing so officially as "Projection Designer" if he or she is working under a union contract, even if the design utilises technology other than video projectors. The term "Projection Designer" stems from the days when slide and film projectors were the primary source of projection. (MA Digital Theatre ), University of the Arts London is the first Master's level course in the UK designed to teach video design exclusively as a specific discipline, rather than embedding it into scenic design. Also Opera Academy Verona has a Workshop Laboratory from 2009 of Projection Design for Opera and Theatre, Directed from Carlo Saleti, Gianfranco Veneruci and Florian CANGA. In the USA, the Yale School of Drama began the first graduate level program in Projection Design in 2010.〔http://news.yale.edu/2009/10/30/school-drama-adds-new-concentration-projection-design〕 The (Projection Design Concentration ) is part of its MFA Design program. Headed by Wendall K. Harrington, it graduated its first two designers in 2013. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Video design」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
