Fall for Dance 2018 - Stage Manager
There were lots of unique technical elements to this production. shoulders used a system to create a tap board with buttons, that when hit, would trigger certain audio or visual cues. Invention in Three Parts, was a collaboration between the Dance and Film departments. Dancers were filmed in motion-capture suits, and then some film students created animations based on their choreography. Student Bodies included multiple 'self-popping' balloons that were cued to pop towards the end of the piece.
