Count DraculaAssistant Lighting Designer

During my work on Dracula, I was given the responsibility of lighting the crypt scene. I chose to use bright greens and pinks in order to evoke the feeling that this place is not natural. I also wanted people to have a sickly look.

My other responsibilities for this show were lighting the picture frame effect, drafting, keeping paperwork, designing and programming with the designer.

Mina, almost a vampire, finds Dracula sleeping in his coffin .
