Amy Lu - Set Design
Year: III
Role in the Show: I work with exec and my set design committee to -- wait for it -- design the set for the show, which includes CIBC Hall (where the show is held) as well the lounge area outside the hall. The set design committee works tirelessly throughout the year to create set pieces, and puts everything together the night before the show. I also take care of any technical details necessary to make this all happen. We hope that you come away from Chrysalis with vivid memories not only of the show, but also of the set! Where do you purchase your clothes? I'm not loyal to any stores in particular, though I guess I'm often drawn to the wearability and versatility of stores like H&M. Fashion Inspirations? Everything around me (as cheesy as that sounds): my fellow classmates, a stranger on the street, a glossy photo in a magazine -- everything's fair game. Unfortunately not all of this inspiration translates into execution, and I often fall back on what's easy, classic, and comfortable. What does Chrysalis mean to you? While "chrysalis" can literally refer to a part of insect development, I think of it as an elegant word which captures that moment when change is happening. You may not be able to tell what you're going to get, but you know that it'll be something different and extraordinary. |
