7, a series at Riverview November, 2010 and January, 2011.

We spent quite a while figuring out what to do for the lit device on top of the truss in this set. The final build was seven black boxes, with only four sides, made using 3/4 inch particle board (since that happened to be some scrap material we had laying around) and 60 watt lamps in workshop light fixtures.

We arranged seven columns of 10 foot truss with symmetrical depth, lateral position, and height on the stage and wired the top boxes to dimmers.

Not That Bad, a series at Riverview October, 2010.

After some careful measuring and cutting we nailed several sheets of painted-black 1.5 inch foam to the back wall.

The black contrasted against the white wall giving us visual anchors for the various projected images and animations.

Follow, a series at Riverview September, 2010.

The Follow set build was fairly simple, four towers of truss of increasing height were assembled on stage left. The towers are 8ft, 10ft, 18ft, and 20ft.

The lights were adjusted to focus toward the truss to produce shadows from a variety of angles.

Nuclear Family, a series at Riverview July, 2010.

We recently acquired some additional truss for use in our set builds. For the Nuclear Family set build we assembled four twenty foot tall columns of truss on 3 foot steel base plates.

The truss is lit on the inside with four ColorSplash JR LED fixtures and wrapped with a spandex-like fabric. On the left and right, between the columns we set a Coemar iWash HALO. Various lighting cues were set around projection color schemes which changed during the service.
