Dolly Parton 

Better Day World Tour

​

Working with Dolly is a true blessing for so many reasons. As we set out on the design process I quickly explored colorful enhancement approaches as she is the show. 

​

Dolly entertains each night with two 90 minute sets and this allowed us to focus on to separate "opening" looks to set the tone for the experience. Custom fabricated LED rolling systems were created to change the visual display areas as well as reveal lighting effects. The crown themed truss system was also articulated to bring about change.

Super Bowl XLIV Halftime Show

Miami, Florida

​

The Who's iconic logo inspired the design team to push the limits on scaling it to an American professional football field in Miami. The results proved themselves with eye popping visuals on a domed shield powered by over 3000 Barco MiStripes. 

​

As the Video Designer, I lead the research and development concepts and testings. The process was tedious with special attention paid to camera angles and the logistics of moving such a large structure safely and quickly.

Paramore

Self-Titled World Tour

​

One of the forefront top-selling 'punk' bands of our times, Paramore, has enlisted my efforts for visual design since the Honda Civic Tour days. 

​

Utilizing the negative space of their Monolith logo allowed a unique canvas for visual display. The MiStrip fencing surrounding the supporting band members were also mapped to provided additional eye-candy visual support.

​

Super Bowl XLVI

Indianapolis, IN

​

Serving as the Video Designer for the Madonna NFL performance was by far an honor. As with previous Half Time Show experiences the research and development was intense. 

​

The show elements included the largest LED inlayed stage as well as the phenomenal largest projection mapping on a Live Broadcast ever seen.
