My project is going to be a recreation of an effect I saw in a show called "Fuersabruta" at the Edinburgh Festival. It's a man running on an over sized treadmill, which is on a moveable platform. As the man is running walls made from boxes fly at him and he breaks through them. To see clips of the show go to http://www.fuerzabruta.net/website/fuerza_eng.html.
For the wall I would rig tab track on two bars abot two metres apart, running parallel across the stage. Then hang a large rectangular frame between them. The wall of boxes would then be built within the frame.
My idea for the treadmill is a converyor belt or travelator set into Ath stage. I would remove one or two sections of the stage and replace it with the converyor belt. In the original show the treadmill is mounted on a steel frame on wheels, giving it height because the audience is viewing it from ground level. As the audience in the Ath will be veiwing it from above there is no need to raise the treadmill.
