#77 Aaron Rhyne

It's episode #77 and we are sitting down with Projection Designer Aaron Rhyne! Aaron's work can currently be scene eight times a week on Broadway with his vibrant, lush and transformative imagery on display in 'Anastasia.' Cory and Aaron chat about the genesis of that design including finding the right tone and style for the content, how he researched and documented real life locations on a trip to Europe, how the projections flow and transition so seamlessly with the other scenery onstage and the moment the cast and creative team first saw his stunning Act 1 finale reveal of Paris. They also chat about his work on 'Gentleman's Guide..'.and how video came to play a role in such a traditional period piece, and his recent run of work on 'Frozen,' 'Tangled,' and 'Beauty and Beast' for Disney Theme parks and cruise ships. Aside from specific shows, he also shares his thoughts on the projection design process, integration with other departments and how he is teaching the next generation of projection designers at his alma matter, Fordham University.
