Digital Scenic Design

As a designer specializing in video-based imagery and dynamic scenic backgrounds for live theatre, I transform stages into vivid, high-definition worlds that match your production’s vision. Working collaboratively with directors, choreographers, and creative teams, I build immersive environments that elevate storytelling and deepen audience connection.

From the sparkling magic of the North Pole in Elf: The Musical…
to the electrifying gothic ambiance of Frankenstein Place in The Rocky Horror Show…
to the atmospheric painted portraits of suspicious characters in The Mystery of Edwin Drood…
to the whimsical, candy-coated realms of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory—complete with swirling confections, shimmering chocolate rivers, and the larger-than-life spectacle of Wonkavision…

Each design is built with intentional color palettes, stylistic cohesion, and cinematic detail.

My digital backdrops don’t just set the scene—they become part of the narrative itself. Whether your show calls for whimsy, nostalgia, or high-drama spectacle, I create imagery that enhances the emotional heartbeat of the moment and seamlessly integrates with lighting, staging, and performance.

Let’s create theatre that moves, glows, surprises—and tells your story in a way only video design can.

“The stage, white and vast, gives the illusion of the wide expanse of the North Pole tundra. The decision to project backdrops onto this glowing canvas was genius. With so many rapid location changes, it became the most effective way to guide the audience through the show’s numerous scene transitions.”
