Comment:
His lectures are hilarious attempts of a person who doesn't know anything about the subject matter pretending to know. He is unable to operate his computer, so at least 10 minutes of every class is watching him fumble around trying to figure out where the volume is. He requires you to do a film project, but doesn't provide any help or resources.

I didn't really like the class. I'm not into the whole film thing, and I took it for an easy A. It wasn't easy, I got an A, but the class requires attendance, there's a lot of quizzes, and the film group project is the final. Not a bad class, the professor is very anti-phone and computer so don't even think about having them out. He'll call you out

Bugg actively required participation and attendance. 20% of the grade was based on attendance! He will interrupt class to call out a phone user. Just hide in the shadows on the lowest brightness. Just shut up, take in the info, do the quiz, and walk away. Easy A if you show up.

Comment:
Spends much of classes talking about his views and himself. Leaves out major parts of film history, such as the studio system. Incredibly ignorant of basic scientific principles but believes that he should have an opinion, even though he is not a science professor. I spent most of class on my laptop, the only stuff that counts is attendance.

Comment:
The professor rarely even seemed prepared for class and would frequently just read the required reading from the night before straight out of the textbook to us. For not really seeming to care about the class, attendance is mandatory. you have to do all of the reading in order to pass the weekly quizzes. He doesn't prep you for the quizzes in class

The only time we went over any actual material was right before a test so its difficult to know fully what to study for on a test. I feel I could have taught this class better. All he did was play film clips. He was really prepared for class and most classes seemed very "thrown together"

Comment:
Absolutely terrible teacher!! Bugg doesn't teach anything... at all. He instead spends class showing clips of his old acting. Then you have weekly tests based solely off the book, nothing from class. He will ask for student's opinions and then tell you why his is more right. It was SUCH a frustrating semester with him. I WOULD NOT RECCOMEND. 010.

There is a ton of reading. The quizzes are based on the textbook reading. You will have to watch a movie every week, and sometimes questions from the movie are on the quizzes. The only reason I attend class is because he takes attendance, which is worth 5 points. There is a group film project. Easy A if you do the reading and show up.

While this professor for THEA 1023 is fairly easy, he can be a difficult person to get along with. Sometimes your opinions are fought with and its easier to not speak during class. He's an interesting professor

Professor Bugg is really good at what he does. He is really sparks your interest in Theater. He has quizes every week and they are a big part of the grade. They are really easy if you read the chapter and take notes in class. Highly recommended!

If you want to learn a lot from Bugg, then work hard, and you will be extremely rewarded because he is a super experienced director and can really help you to become a much better actor if you take what he says and do it!

Great professor- when he puts in effort. Shows up sometimes unprepared with no lesson plan and forgets assignments. He never takes atrendance so rarely anyone comes to class.

I think it was best said you have to be a true actor to appreciate Richard Bugg. He really expects you to try different things with your monologue than just one emotion

Very disorganized. Lost multiple assignments multiple times. Did not adhere to his schedule. Did not adhere to his grading criteria. Was incredibly unhelpful about his schedule and grading criteria.

Very shy professor who can be very absent minded. Sometimes forgets he assigned things, and can be very vague on what he wants. However, he can be very helpful about certain things. For classical acting related things he does know his stuff, and he knows a lot about the actual business. Expect lots of personal stories.

Professor Bugg did not teach from the book at all even though that's what the quizzes and papers were based on. I didn't pay attention to a single lecture and I got by just fine.

Mr. Bugg is unorganized and really has no idea about what his point about this class is. There are no exams only take home quizes, which is nice.
