Scenic Design and Projections by Matt Kizer

Posted on by Kizer

Below is documentation of the set design for this show. If you are here specifically looking for the scenic projections, the rentable media can be viewed at this link.

This design for The Wedding Singer draws heavily from my earlier design at Jean’s Playhouse.    The basic functionality and look of the set is the same.

The projection installation is more sophisticated this time around, allowing a bigger background, with different proportions.    There was much more animation involved this time, especially in scenes relating to the Delorean, and the Las Vegas Strip.
