Lighting Designer ~ Electrician ~ Programmer
Alexander Marshall

Vectorworks Drafting
Working in vectorworks is always one of my favorite parts of the process of being either a lighting designer or electrician, and I wanted to share some of the projects I've made over the past year that I'm especially proud of.
This depicts the overstage view of my lighting design for a version of Sweat set within the Catawba theatre of UNCSA. While this was not actually staged, I found the project tremendously helpful in advancing my skills with Vectorworks, especially the then newly released 2025 update.

Here I just wanted to give you a brief tour of my vw2025 file for the Sweat design project. This plot was remarkably dense with fixtures due to the nature of the venue, so I made extensive use of class, layer, and selective visibility as well as saved views. Schematic views also proved very helpful for plating, making data managment much cleaner throughout the process.
