Graduate Thesis Collection
Collection of theses from 2010 and later
This database houses the graduate thesis work completed at all SCAD locations from fall 2010 forward. It is keyword searchable and includes both written and visual components, giving the user a broader understanding of both product (digitized studio work) and its underlying concept (the written thesis). The goal of the database is to provide both aspiring MFA candidates timely models of what a graduate thesis should address, and the larger public a sense of the richness of graduate work done at SCAD. Questions regarding this database should be directed to the Visual Resources Center (vrc@scad.edu)

World-building is an essential part of the storytelling process. When creators ignore the context in which their story takes place, that story will fall flat and distance readers from its world. By using creativity to build unique cultures, languages, and visual histories, creators will both immerse and involve readers in their story and its world. J. R. R. Tolkien used these principles to create an entire mythology and the stories that were born from it. Today, his stories are still the most well-known examples of world-building in fantasy literature. Other examples in literature, entertainment, and comics have built on his example and built new worlds for their new stories. Through world-building, creators should seek not only to fully understand their own story, but also life itself.

With more than 875 million people on Facebook and a majority of arts organizations in the US utilizing some form of social media, there is still a shocking absence of research on the subject within the arts administration discipline. The purpose of this research is to inform performing arts administrators in Brevard County, Florida, about how marketing philosophy impacts its use of social media. Testing the popular proposition found in marketing and social media literature that a relationship marketing philosophy is most compatible with social media platforms, the researcher asks: How does a relationship marketing philosophy impact an organization’s use of social media and the level of audience engagement?

Imagine if you had to live in the shadows of a building that was designed by the Nazi party and caused the death of some of your community and of your friends and family during World War II. The city of Vienna deals with this issue every day with the presence of the Flak Gun Towers that surround the city. This thesis deals with the G-tower located in the Augarten Park and the focus is to re-script the architectural language into a building that is accepted by the community. This is achieved through creating two modern performance theaters and a learning center that would help create new experiences and memories for the community through interaction with the tower and.

This thesis examines how the cinematic concept, or phenomenon, commonly known as Frozen Moments has been used as a storytelling tool. While photographic technology has enabled the phenomenon to be realized, animators such as Tex Avery were known to employ techniques that are comparable to Frozen Moments. The success of such cartoon practices indicate that combined with the advent of modern technology animation can be used to substitute complicated camera movement. Drawing from historical studies of photography, sculpture, and cinema, thesis aims to provide a chronological overview of the development since the end of the 19th Century.
