ARCADIA
As part of Advanced Design at Western Michigan University, we were put into teams with students of other focuses. I was placed with a team of scenic and lighting designers, and we created a hypothetical version of Arcadia. We placed our version of modern day in the 2000s as to lean into the nerdy sitcom era of entertainment.
RASHOMON
Also part of Advanced Design at Western Michigan University, I was paired with a lighting student and we collaborated on creating a hypothetical production of Rashomon. Our concept was to create smaller worlds that were unique to the storytelling of each character while having a semi-unified reality. We played a lot with the idea of lighting and silhouettes in tandem with the costumes.
