About TMA FMS Projects

So how is it done? What’s the secret behind our spectacular TMA FMS podcast? We start with twelve student writers and a gently confused instructor – all trapped in a small room. Initially, the ideas are sparse and uninspiring. But, gradually, something magical happens. The ideas become more vague, less feasible. Characters lose depth, storylines deteriorate into semi-related anecdotes. Three months of increasingly ineffective re-writes later, voila! Podcast scripts!

​Next, we sprinkle in six student producers, a second instructor, two marathon production days, a few months of post-production, and voila again! Podcast complete!

TMA is the Department of Theatre and Media Arts at Brigham Young University. FMS means Faculty Mentored something. The S doesn’t stand for Something. I mean it does stand for something, but not Something. Maybe it’s Summer? Special? Stuff? Student. That's it.

Anyway, the University is very kind and supportive. Some remarkably talented professionals including Kyle Mooney, Louie Anderson, Joe Estevez and Jerusha Hess all pitch in (these are truly great human beings), the technical pros amaze us all, and the result is a great learning environment for all mankind.
