3d Drawings

The most important scenes were created in 3d for the presentation of the set one year before the premiere.

Rehearsals

The set was builded in the rehearsal room one month before the premiere. During this period  we saw all of the possibilities of the set, and all the team get more comfortable with the web before the stage.

Model

Trying to find the best tension and balance in the big web. A real model was necessary to find the final geometry of the set.

Animation

The 3d simulation helps us to check all possible conflicts with the ropes before building the set.
