The War and Treaty

Concept

All images are proof of concept references. Final build will vary based on budget and location.

The set

Build a small lifted circular stage, with a ground-stacked LED wall set back behind it.

Maybe flowers, plants, something warm and colorful with life as art scattered around.

The build

As the song builds, the band and the choir walk in and take their places in circles around the set, or a semi-circle around the group.

Piano, TWT, mic, in the center. Almost like a deconstructed choir or prayer group.

The storm

Projecting a storm progression of clouds, storms, rain, onto a circle on the LED wall behind the group, backlighting their outfits.

TWT in the eye of it all.

Sunday Service choir has always really inspired me with how stripped down yet emotional, and energetic their performances were.

Sometimes we need story, sometimes we take them to church.
