Abstract
My thesis is about my experience designing the set for fall 2018 production of A Midsummer Night’s Dream in Randall Theater, Tomlinson in Temple University. It will explain how I started with the design from reading the script to the final step of the production. Being deaf helped me to visualize the concept of the scenic design for the play. I learned so much about communication with the director and creative team. The chapter one explains the production meeting with the director, where we shared our ideas for the design of the scenic. Chapter two explains my research and inspiration, progressing from rough sketches to final color model set. Chapter three explains how we started to build and paint the set from drafting and paint elevations. It also outlines the progress of building and painting in the black box theatre. It will also briefly explain how we created props such as the flower, and the technical rehearsals. Chapter 4 explains about my evaluation of the set such as what it would need to work on or fix and how proud I was with my work. Chapter 5 is a reflection on this production and my experience in the graduate program. Appendices include research pictures for inspiration, drafting, production pictures, renderings, white model, color models, resume, headshot, technical rehearsal notes, director’s concept and previous productions I designed from first 2 years.
