Construction and testing: the sacred ring flown set piece from 'Sacred'

  • Sydney
  • Sets & Lighting, Behind the Scenes

The development of set pieces and props often involve many stages and a degree of testing. Prior to building this set piece, a model was made using PVC pipe. A test was then designed, sending smoke through the PVC pipe to ascertain how much pressure was needed to make the smoke emerge fluently through 2mm holes.
