Designer Presentations
For your design presentation, you can either:
1- Present 3-4 individual design samples (i.e. lighting state, garment sketch, etc.) from past productions taken from your portfolio. These can be from different productions or multiple designs from the same show—whichever best highlights your skills and style! Remember you only have 10 minutes total, so please stick to 3-4 examples and keep it concise.
OR
2- Select one of the three prompts provided (available soon on this page). Your response does not have to be a fully realized design—it can take the form of a concept, mood board, or demo. Focus on conveying your inspiration, vision, and how it connects to the prompt you’ve chosen. We are looking to see a glimpse of your creative process, but make sure to leave room for questions and discussion.
