1984

Orwell's classic set in a contemporary world


Director: Tom Mitchell

University of Illinois: 10/2015


In response to events in the UI campus community, the goal of this production was to emphasize the over-reaching of authoritarian entities with respect to both censorship and surveillance. No video was used in this production, thus the sound design became an important channel for conveying these elements of the story. Sounds of interrogation, insidious melodies accompanying propagandistic messages, and the use and obvious visual presence of several microphones combined with several occurrences of realistic effects to aid in the telling of this important tale.
