Client: Mike Young Productions
Concept set design for television show, 2000
This was the interior set design of an apartment featured for a potential TV show,
with the lead character living as a couch potato in this weird, askewed dump.
The angle perspective was deliberately twisted.

THE
BEAR
by Anton Chekov
Sample costume & set design for Vassar College, 1993
My
very first set design. The intention here was to limit the basic color palette
to
two contrasting colors (in this case, red and green) for the set and costumes.

OTHELLO: Desdemona's
Chamber
by William Shakespeare
Concept set design for Vassar College, 1993
The
intention here was to be symmetricai and ornate, like moorish and Middle Eastern
architecture.
The "skull" frame with windows for the eyes and teeth left an eeire,
if not very subtle, impression.

KING
LEAR: Initial Concept Design.
by William Shakespeare
For Vassar College, 1995
Here I was trying to go for minimalism. A reflective opaque backdrop was placed
in the background, so the overall color scheme could change with the lights. Black
"tarps" were dropped from above, implying a sense of architectural columns
in a free space. The center piece, a constructed platform with stairs on one side
and a stone-like boulder on the other, could be rotated during a scene to keep
the movement going without breaks. My professor actually preferred this concept
sketch more than my final paintings!

LIFE OF GALILEO
Galileo's Study
by B. Brecht
Concept design for Vassar College, 1995.
One of my favorite designs, this play entailed two backdrops: one with the sun
at center,
and the dropout moons and planets slowly moving "around" it (as Galileo
asserted),
and the "religious" view of the sun spinning around the earth.

CRY FOR ME
by Rommen Cromwell
Performed at Vassar College, 1995.
Now THIS set was fun...and brought in on a budget of $97. (Leaving us $3 to spare.)
The man saying "You're expelled" was none other than our college Dean,
who I understand did not appreciate the gesture.
