LUKE KRAUSS (SOUND DESIGNER / ENGINEER) ELEMENTS OF DESIGN Designers work within many different confines when designing a show. • Where is the production physically taking place, what is the stage / venue like? • Where does the show take place: in a house, an office, a school, the forest, multiple locations, etc. • When does the show take place: what time period – 1800’s, 1914, 2013, 2045, etc.; what time of year is it (does this change during the show)? What time of day is it (does this change during the show)? • What is the mood of the show? (Is it a comedy, a tragedy, is it serious or light? Is it a controversial topic?) • Who is the show for; adult audiences, youth audiences, both etc.? • How much money can the designer spend creating their design? What is their budget? What needs to be purchased, built, repurposed, etc.? • How long do they have to design and create their design so that it is ready and safe for the actors? • What is the director’s concept for the show & how does that affect the designer? • If the show is a co-production (being done in multiple venues). • For a touring show, designers must make sure that everything will fit – easily – into the van transporting their designs (along with the actors and stage manager); and that these elements can be constructed and deconstructed quickly; as well as making sure that the pieces are durable. 29
