Here's a screenshot of a cue stack in QLab. Click on the image to enlarge it. One of the first shows I sounded designed after college was "The Voice of The Prairie" by John Olive. This show was a challenge but also extremely fun to design. I color code my cues mainly for my own purposes.

​The colors are as follows -

Purple - Voiceovers
Green - Sound Effects
Yellow - Fades
Blue - Music
Red - Soundscapes (sound effects that play under a scene like night time sounds or a camp fire.)

To create some of my original pieces I use Magix Music Maker. For Sound Design Class at Frostburg State Univeristy, I sound designed Tom Griffin's "The Boys Next Door". This is Jack's Theme (above) and Lucien's Theme (below). I created a theme for each of the characters to play during their aside monologues to the audience. Each charcter had their own instrument. For Jack's Theme (above) I used guitar and piano and for Lucien's Theme I used violin and piano. Click on the image to enlarge it.

Set Design

During my time at Frostburg State University, I was tasked to design a set for Neil Simon's "Lost In Yonkers" for Set Design Class. We had to create the set using Vectorworks and create a color rendering. Here are two examples of the work I did. Click on each photo to enlarge it. Here are images of the rending and one sheet of my working drawings.

Light Design

During my time at Frostburg State University, I was in charge of stage managing and light desging several of the recitals for the Music Department. Here are a few examples of the work I did.

A Review

 If nothing else, the performance of Kenneth L. Waters, Jr. make this a must-see experience. Waters portrays Mitch, the “comfort counselor.” Mitch is completing his community service hours by performing this job at the Bee. Waters was so convincing that I first wondered if he was just really this type of character in real life. The major brilliance of the performance by Waters is fully revealed when he also play the one of fathers to one of the characters. Waters transforms from knife-wielding thug to cake-baking nurturer. Waters even further shows his amazing technique and skill when he briefly plays a different character’s father and just as seamlessly transforms into a third, completely different character. Waters demonstrated strong vocals and he has an especially rich and pleasing tone. Overall, one of the best performances that I have seen in local theater." - a review on 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee with Tantallon Players from Showbiz Radio
