Two Domes of Star Chamber

2domesresized

This image show Alex King our plaster man on far left, Neville Kidd one of our Brilliant Directors of photography and Andy the plaster man to the right.
The lower part of the image shows about six pieces of the plaster dome attached together. The upper part of the image shows the structural pipe dome rigged above the plaster half dome.
The plaster dome will be attached to the pipe dome and hoisted above the rest of the set. I know it sounds confusing, and this was the first time I have ever built a dome? Well we all know I didn’t build it…the Plaster men and Construction did a truly amazing job!!!!

Model of the Star Chamber

This is the crazy model of the Star Chamber. There were a few jokes about it looking like a spaceship ready to take off. This model was built by Jasper and Gillie. They built the model then we tried all sorts of different images to go on the walls.

The beginning of the STAR CHAMBER!!!!!
The carpenters and riggers built this frame out of pipes for the dome which they will attach the pieces of the plaster dome.

Star Chamber – My Favorite from Seasons 1 & 2

Ok this is by far my favorite set!!! People kinda though it was a crazy idea at first, but sometimes you have to push the envelope. I will try to show lots of photos of the making of this set. I think carpenters, scenic artist and plaster department all got a kick out this one.
