Starting as an intern then transitioning onto staff for the Lightning in a Bottle Art and Music Festival and Woogie Weekend Music Festival 2015 and 2016 seasons, I had the privilege of working directly with the owners, operators, crew, and artists on the festival layout and cartography graphics. I also assisted in pre-event site scouts, topographic surveys, terrain elevation diagrams for stage placement, post-event GPS site surveys and data evaluation, camp square footage reports, logistical and transit diagrams and much more. I also assisted in the layout design of a stage structure presentation.
