Selena Quintanilla: Tu Es Mio-Unrealized Design

University of California, Irvine - Winter 2020

Unrealized Costume Design Renderings, Research, and Inspiration by Matthew Darryl Martinez

Sound Design by Hunter Moody

​

Prompt:

You will be your own Director & Costume Designer  (thus coming up with overall concept) for a tour of a famous singing artist. This can be any type of dance, keep in mind that quick changes must be considered in the design. Music must be part of your presentation.

​

Designer Concept:

Selena Quintanilla: Tu Es Mio (You are Mine), will take on a residency within The Axis Theatre  within Planet Hollywood Resort and Casino, located in Las Vegas, Nevada. Parallel to the successful Michael Jackson and Whitney Houston hologram show and tour, I propose the same concept centered around Selena Quintanilla. This performance will be framed around the re-costumed hologram of Selena Quintanilla, and how her style would be interpreted in 2020. Combining the hologram of Selena with live band members and dancers  will bring her back for a brief moment, giving audience members a sense of what might or could have been.
