GLORIA by Branden Jacobs-Jenkins

 As the Production Sound Engineer, my task for the production was to help support a hard-hitting narrative of how the news industry (and the world) viewed an officeplace shooting. Working with the designer for the production, we wanted to prioritize the audience’s experience while also making sure that the content being said on stage still landed with them. In addition to the content, there was a moment where the designer wanted to have a newspaper headline soundscape that moved throughout the space. So, It was important to make sure that the designer had individual control over the surround speakers in the space and they could choose exactly where the headlines were coming from.
