What is Set Designing?
Set designing is a major part of
corporate events. Located mostly outside the company’s premises, sets
are created to display and promote the company’s products and services.
Sets may be simple single colour
backdrops or elaborate and complex arrangements, depending on the needs
of the client. To make them attractive and gather eyeballs, set designs
have an underlying creative theme to them. Branding, which consists of
the company’s name, logo and tagline, is an integral part of set
designing.
Set designing begins with a brief from the client. The complexity of the
design and its size directly affects the time required to design and
erect the set. Simple single colour backdrop sets can be designed in a
few hours but complex sets with many features may take days to design
and erect. Therefore, it is essential that the client be correctly
apprised about the time and money needed for the completion of his set
design.
A set design should be both functionally sound and aesthetically
pleasing and therefore needs a team of professionals with requisite
skills to build them. The client-servicing, design and on-ground
construction teams have to work hand-in-hand to complete the task
successfully.
Designing is done using a 3D software called 3D Max. A fresh pass out
from a design school takes about 6 months to operate the software with
proficiency, given he has daily exposure and a reasonable amount of work
load to feed his growth curve.
Materials used in actual construction of sets are plywood, iron, vinyl, foam sheet etc.
