One sparkling evening
Not only did the stars shine on the night of the 92nd Oscars on Feb 8, so did the stage at the Dolby Theatre in Hollywood. It was lit up with 40,000
Swarovski crystals in clear, crystal, golden shadow and silver shade. The task of designing the stage fell to Jason Sherwood, the Emmy Award designer and creative director for live music, television, theatre and experiential productions.
For example, the Crystal Inner Spiral was a nearly 500kg structured swirl adorned with crystal curtains. Hundreds of crystal strands threaded with 12,000 precision-cut Swarovski crystals brought a lightness and luminosity to the center of the stage. The elevated Crystal Tower, which features 28,000 Swarovski crystals, weighed a staggering 600kg.
“Designing for the Oscars in 2020 is about creating a space as complex, diverse, and beautiful as the movies of the year, for a celebration of some of the world’s most esteemed artists,” Sherwood said in a statement. “My production design is a sculptural cyclone where Hollywood glamour and film-making artistry can combine visually to celebrate the impact of storytelling, and our partnership with Swarovski has allowed that vision to shine at every turn. Crystals imbue the design with the floating, magical sense of possibility, and bring an almost kaleidoscope wonder to a stage and a year of movies that celebrate the human experience.” E
