Jeremy Thom has been designing extraordinary stage sets and engineered structures for more than forty years. He has production, management and design credits for an array of projects arcing through custom structures, rock’n’roll, movies, industrial theatre, ballet and opera with a diverse roster of clients ranging from the Rolling Stones, Miles Davis and Andrea Bocelli to BMW, British Airways and AT&T; from LiveAid in both London and Philadelphia to the National Independence Celebrations in Zaire; from the Spanish Socialist Party’s Election Campaign to the Moscow Music Peace Festival; from Woodstock ‘94 to the first 9/11 Commemorations for the city of New York on Sept 11, 2002, and the sole production designer for the Doha Film Festival in 2010 & 2011 where a total of 19 independent temporary structures were erected, one being a 2500 seat amphitheatre with full stage, and a 20 acre site that was dressed and branded. For the past 20 years he has overseen the build of the Vanity Fair Oscars Party, has recently designed and built three Olympic Trial Big Air ski ramps, and a rammed dirt and concrete stage for a one night Kanye West show at the LA Coliseum.
Over the years, Jeremy has amassed an encyclopedic repertoire of design techniques that lend uniqueness to these varied projects, sized from modest to massive. He is involved from first concept, through technical and structural design, and oversees the majority of the project construction and finishing detail both in workshop and onsite.
