The Drowsy Chaperone -
Scotch 'n' Soda's 2012 Spring Carnival show. Due to time constraints, I was only able to provide requested sounds for the show. They were all pretty straightforward, though it did involve yet another recorded message.

Lunar Gala 2012 -
Lunar Gala is Carnegie Mellon's largest annual fashion show. For this event, I operated the projections from a group of stock video clips selected by the production designer, my friend Jackson. Projections were run from Isadora, which had been set up as a video mixer. The entire show is available on YouTube courtesy of cmuTV.
L'enfant et les Sortilèges -
Assignment with the Carnegie Mellon School of Drama. Assisted the Master Electrician in running focus, maintaining the rig, and strike. I entered the production in the middle, shortly after load-in due to how scheduling assignments works around the transition between fall and spring semesters.
Urinetown -
Urinetown came during a semester crowded with school work and TAing duties, but despite that I managed to teach a group of freshmen the basics of doing sound with Scotch 'n' Soda. In terms of design, there's not much to say about the musical. We had very few sound cues, and I let the new students handle finding and making those. We used 14 mics and had a very simple plot that included only one mic switch for the entire show.

Cabaret -
Cabaret was Scotch 'n' Soda's 2011 Spring Carnival show. It's the largest production that we do every year and it's shown during Carnegie Mellon's Carnival Weekend.
Boeing Boeing -
This is a show that almost didn't happen. We had some issues with obtaining the rights to the play, so there was a week right before tech week where we weren't sure if the play could be performed at all. Luckily we were able to perform it, however I believe that the terms of that showing of the play prevent me from publishing any photos of it at all.
What We Bury -
What We Bury is a student-written play by Shannon Deep that deals with sexual orientation. The play revolves around three characters, Jake, Vince and Darcy. The story takes place out of chronological order and parts of it happen in Jake's imagination. This was a staged reading, with a talkback held after each show.
The Rocky Horror Show -
This was Scotch 'n' Soda's Homecoming Musical for 2010. Scotch 'n' Soda is a completely student-run theater group at Carnegie Mellon University. Everything from sets to sound to publicity is done by students.
