I served as Production Coordinator for Universal 360, a new, multi-million dollar nighttime spectacular for Universal Studios Florida, featuring large-scale projections, laser effects, and pyrotechnics.

My responsibilities included overall show creative and technical support, oversight of budget tracking, timelines, production documentation, final show deliverables, travel and re-location, management of vendors, supervision of installation and show crews, and facilitation of communication between show team and Universal management.

Universal 360 was produced on an accelerated timeline in order to assure opening in time for the peak July 4th holiday weekend. Completed from conception to opening in less than four months, the show utilizes an assortment of new technologies to entertain appluading crowds nightly during the summer season.

Universal 360 is a first-ever combination of more than 100 great movies, 360-degree spherical projection, lasers, pyro effects, digital mapping technology and four enormous spheres spread across acres of waterfront at Universal Studios Florida. The spheres, which are 30-feet tall and 36-feet wide, float in the park's central lagoon and serve as giant outdoor projection screens. Digital mapping technology allows Universal to project supplemental images and effects on buildings surrounding the lagoon-transforming entire buildings into walls of flame. The show also features a specially developed soundtrack broadcast through more than 300 outdoor speakers.
