Director and Producer applications

posted 2006/03/17 by Douglas Stebila

Applications for Producer and Director for FASS 2007 are still being accepted. Have you been reluctant to apply for Director so far? It's a great job, as this year's Director, Josh Hoey, writes:

"While I know it may sound cliche, being a director really was better than I ever expected it would be. Every rehearsal was a pleasure, working with actors, techies and the creative staff to create a production that was fun to watch and fun to *create*. I got a chance to work with absolutely everyone in FASS to some extent; I met new people and strengthened the friendships in FASS I already had. Even if you've never seriously considered directing before, think back on the fun you've had in FASS and image yourself in the director's chair. I'd heard previous directors rave on how different and how wonderful directing was, but didn't believe them until I did it myself."

So don't be shy, apply!

Applications for Producer will be open until end of day, Friday, March 24, 2006. Applications for Director will be open ended; when we get an application, I'll send an email to FASSmod informing you that applications will shortly be closed. But don't delay, apply today!

If you'd like to apply, send an email to the President. In the email, you should include the following:

• Name, local contact information
• The position for which you are applying
• Past experience in FASS
• Past experience relevant to the position for which you are applying
• Relevant scheduling information (are you in co-op, will you be away from Waterloo at all during the year, etc.)
• A description of how you will approach the job

You will then need to come to a committee meeting to interview for the position.

Descriptions of the jobs are available.

Please feel free to email me or the current holder of the position with any questions you might have.
