Pool of Unknown Wonders (Assistant Scenic Designer)
(Fall 2021)

I served as the assistant scenic designer for UC Berkeley's production of Pool of Unknown Wonders under designer Nina Ball. The set featured a large steel 'cage' encompassing the stage, which the actors climbed and interacted with throughout the show. This role included design and production meetings, working with designers and director to clarify the design, creating paint elevations, checking in with the shop on progress. In addition, I took the lead on properties design for the show: gathering reference images, presenting these images to first Nina and then the production team, and working with the properties master to find desired items.
