- Sibyl -
Sibyl was a play written by Trip Venturella and directed by Alan Patrick Kenny about members of an organization dealing in looking into minds searching for a missing coworker. It ran as part of the 25th Annual Playwrights' Festival in April 2019 at Ohio University.
The play was written with projection in mind, and I was brought on as an Assistant Projection Designer, working with Owen Lowery.
Using Scenic Designer Nathan Arnold's blueprints of the stage and paper models from design meetings, I created a 3D model of the set in Maya. Owen and I brought it into TouchDesigner, which allowed us to test and demo our ideas for the space even before the set was built. Our view of the stage was limited, so this setup, plus the custom user interface, allowed us to adjust projections as needed.
