Terry Gilliam, Monty Python and Hollywood ledgent takes on Berliotz's dramatic ledgent, The Damnation of Faust in an epic new staging for the ENO.
Large scale HD front projection and 3k rear projection and many other small projectors make up a world of fantastical and abstract projection telling the story of World War 1 in 1 min, the Nazis rampage through pre war German society and a ride into the abyss on an old motor bike.
Working with my team we made all orgional animation for the show and worked with footage farm to source some very spesfic historical footage.
Reviews for Faust:
4 stars from the Guardian: "No punches are pulled, the use of video is perfectly judged, and everything on stage has a musical as well as visual purpose.
4 stars from The Indipendent: "phenomenally slick, complex show of many components and brilliant theatrical effects"
5 stars from The Telegraph: "the risk has resulted in an unqualified triumph."
