The Simple Life (And Death)

Scaffolding

Programmer and Operator

I programmed and operated Scaffolding for the entire Edinburgh Fringe run. Utilising lighting to give the impression of height on the Scaffolding set and supporting the performer and crew throughout the run.

Lil Wenker: Bangtail

Lighting Designer

I was the lighting designer for Lil Wenker's hilarious show Bangtail at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival. I planned the lighting to the space in such a way that I was able to program the show in under half an hour and then support sound during the tech. I returned a week into the run to make small adjustments to fit the new pace of the show even better, as with clowning performances, the timing of lighting and sound can make a huge impact.
