Abstract

Works cited: page 153. Two attached appendices are scripts for sitcom 'The Buzz' pilot and episode. 'The goal of this thesis project was to bring television, a medium that was not fully explored yet by the Performing Arts Department at the Savannah College of Art and Design, to the Savannah campus and student community. This thesis paper chronicles the process of creating an original multiple-camera sitcom to be produced on the Savannah campus and provide the necessary collaborative groundwork across departments in order to sustain television production at the Savannah College of Art and Design for years to come.' Appendix A. 'The Buzz' 101 'Pilot (Finding Family)' ; Appendix B. 'The Buzz' 102 'First Day.' Advisors/Committee Members: CHAIR: Tymchyshyn, Mark, Reeve-Rabb, Andra, Smith, Greg.
