I had the honor of being invited to work on the digital scenography for "Tarsila, A Brasileira," an engaging two-hour musical that tells the story of the revered Brazilian artist Tarsila do Amaral. The challenge was to conceive an innovative art direction and animate it in alignment with the play and the acting, bringing life into these scenes projected onto a huge LED screen positioned behind the main stage. To accomplish this, I assembled a small team to assist me in various aspects of production, including research, concept development, and animation.
