While the process of development differs to suit each project's unique needs, these are some of the base steps that follow along in the creation of many works:
After first assessing creative needs and determining what problems need solving, work begins developing research and making drawings to visualize potential solutions
Through model building, maquette sculpting, and other forms of prototyping, a representation of the end product is created to sense how it will exist in the real world and allow for potential related issues to arise before production starts.
Construction and fabrication of the final product begins. For special-use items such as complicated puppets or props, rehearsal items will be supplied to allow performers to begin practicing operation.
This is where the magic happens! Paint, costuming, dressing, lighting, all final intricacies are added to complete the design and make the work visually arresting.
From the studio to your space on-schedule, ready to be rehearsed with by your team. Training of special-use items happens at this stage.
