Starting with a group of lightning researchers, planetarium staff, and
visualization specialists, an academically diverse group was formed through a
grant from the National Science Foundation to develop a planetarium show on
lightning. The show target audience is middle school aged children. The goal of
the show is to teach lightning safety and lightning facts in an immersive
environment. Through the use of video, an animated character, and a
meteorologist, the curriculum is presented to the audience. I fulfilled the roles of
producer and director through all aspects of production. My role also included
maintaining group organization and communication throughout show production.
This paper discusses my experiences in producing Enlightening
Lightning! by starting with outlining the curriculum and finishing with putting it all
together at the planetarium. The goal of this paper is to discuss the techniques
and organizational methods used to manage a diverse group and produce a
multimedia show.
