Preliminary Research

learned1

Version #1 Featuring angled, 2-Dimensional painted "walls" with

entrances and exits between the walls. A mirror could be upcenter above a "fireplace"

with the side walls featuring painted murals in the style of Fragonard or Boucher.

Version #2 - Featuring a show portal and drop upstage of the set with "Learned" writings all over it.

Entrances into the room both DSL and DSR as well as UC. The ceiling could be a suspended mirror with a chandelier

hanging from the center. Murals and bookshelves on the existing walls.

Cyc treatment for both the show portal and the painted cyc.

I think if we can light the cyc really well with clouds, etc. I think we could do without the writing. However, Iike the

way the "cyc" aspect of the cyc matches the portal.
