Mary & Ethel: How I Learned to Sing
Projections Designer, Assist. Scenic Designer | Mississippi Bend Players, 2021
Created using Adobe Photoshop, Illustrator, & PremierePro. Mapped with QLab and a 2-projector system. First professional credit.
"After her exuberant, expressive “A Wonderful Guy” to open the show, the last chord was accompanied by the visual logo for her show across the projected area, and as Cooper took her bows at the very end, her arm gestures exactly matched those in brief video of Martin and Merman. That is stunning attention to detail."- Jonathan Turner, quadcities.com
"We see Mary and Ethel, show posters and logos, tickets, video clips, and a glowing musical staff spangled with notes. The whole effect makes it feel as if we were flipping through a scrapbook of Broadway memories as we listen. Steal that extra bow, projections designer Roger Pavey Jr.!"- Pamela Briggs, River Cities' Reader
"Rather than working with a traditional rectangular screen, Pavey somehow projected the many images to perfectly match the thin shape of the Brunner set piece. It was mind-blowing...The timing of the images was also impeccable from start to finish." - Jonathan Turner, quadcities.com
