The Scenic Designer (Jesse Howe) wanted to cover the tree of the island in glowing colored bottles. The execution of this project was left up to myself and the Master Electrician (Andy Rubino). These are the bottles as they appeared initially.

Due to constraints on the size of the necks of the bottles, and the translucence of the glass, the LED lights placed inside where not as bright as desired. In order to emphasize the light that was available, I frosted the exterior of the bottles to diffuse and spread the light.

The lights were placed in the air by the electrics crew, and wired together into a decoder. Each of the three color types was independently controllable, allowing for a glittering effect during the show. 

This ship, discovered by our Props Designer (Grant Sabin), needed to be lit for the first moment of the play. Prospera carried the boat onto the stage, lit only by the light of the ship, as the storm brewed in the background. 

I soldered and wired LED tape along the back of the ship, hiding the light source from the audience and working as a portable source of uplight for Prospera. 

I placed a battery pack that powered the LED tape inside the hull of the ship. A switch on the back of the ship, controllable by the actor, turned the LED lights on and off.
