Abstract
The purpose of this thesis is to provide research, supporting documentation, production photographs, and other relevant materials which document the scenic design for the co-production between the Johnny Carson School of Theatre and Film at the University of Nebraska and the Professionals In-Residence Nebraska Repertory Theatre titled The Flick: An Exploration of Scenic Design Process. This thesis contains the following: research images collected to develop and communicate ideas regarding location, shape, texture, scale, mood, and historical and architectural reference to the production team; preliminary sketches and photographs of the ¼” scale model; a full set of drafting plates and painter’s elevations used to communicate the finished appearance of each scenic element, a list of props containing details for each prop used in the production and accompanying research image reference book; and finally, paperwork generated during the rehearsal and production process. Archival production photographs are furthermore included as documentation of the completed design.
