Assassins
Studio Work: Concert-style Set Design (Reframing music stands, designing hand props and scenic elements for stationary blocking) & Costume Design (Sketch renderings)
Concept: A concert-staged production with a limited budget and production time-frame, socially distanced with stationary blocking. Tshirt & Jeans type of show with small period accessories and signifiers to denote each performer in their own era, all within a red/white/blue colour scheme. Props included massive cutout heads of each president in the style of Shepard Fairey, painted wood prop crates, wooden handgun cutouts, music stand covers with newspaper articles of each assassins' event etc. Each performer's chair was indicative of their period and altered to fit within the colour scheme. Originally designed for the Shaw Festival's 2021 concert series, but was ultimately cancelled.
