Single Camera
Production Design and Art Direction for Network Television
Experienced with +275 episodes of dramatic television series. Ranging from superhero, supernatural, medical, action-adventure, legal, and procedural.
As the way we shoot evolved, film to HD, and the frame 16:9 now framing at 2.2:1, the way the scenery is designed changes. Discussing vfx and how many frames we want to ‘see’ something has become a big part of our craft.
Noteworthy projects: Gotham Knights, Legacies, The Originals, Chuck, The Defenders, He Named Me Malala, and Numb3rs.
Multi-Camera (Sitcoms)
Art Director, Assistant Art Director, Set Designer
I broke into union work as an assistant art director on sitcoms. With +250 episodes of sitcoms, I have experience designing, staging, and working with most networks and studios. Starting in videotape, transitioning to film, and then to HD as well as format changes starting in 4:3, going to widescreen, and ending with 16:9.
Noteworthy projects: Rude Awakenings, Married With Children, Reba, Between Brothers, Oh Baby, and How I Meet Your Mother.
Live Events, Game Shows, and Soap Opera
The Bridge from Theater to Television
Working on soap operas, talk shows, and game shows allowed me to learn about the business. I took a break from series television and worked as an Art Director on award shows. The shows were full of great design, good work, fun rehearsals, and being present at some historical events.
