About me

[edit]

I work in the professional entertainment industry as a technical director, head of production or technical producer. I'm a director of Wonder Works Ltd, based in the UK.

I've worked all over the world on Productions including the Millennium Dome Central Show, Rolling Stones 2002/3, Thomas and Friends Tour, We Will Rock You, Yo Sushi Conveyors, NSSC - Leicester Space Centre, Athens 2004 Olympic Ceremonies, 2006 Doha Asian Games Ceremonies and as the Technical Director for the London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Ceremonies.

I started out in the industry by working with the National Youth Theatre before moving onto Samuelson Concert Productions, Theatre Projects and Vari-Lite (now known as PRG) as a lighting production electrician for 4 years. I then worked with Brilliant Stages and the designer Mark Fisher using AutoCAD to prepare fabrication and design drawings.

My information about me can be found on LinkedIn.

Wonder Works

[edit]

Wonder Works was started in 2012. Wonder Works is an international technical production practice that develops, directs and delivers exceptional technical solutions for live events.

Stagelink.com

[edit]

I'm also the webmaster for Stagelink.com. The site contains thousands of edited production resources and a photo section showing images from Productions around the world. The site grew out of a need for me to keep track of all the companies and people I regularly use within the industry. The site used the database which I originally developed on my first website at shepperd.co.uk.
