The Google Science Fair Awards Ceremony, held each year in Mountain View, CA since 2011, honors the winners of a global online competition open to students from 13 to 18 years old. The event, broadcast to millions of online viewers via YouTube, features the work of students nominated in three age groups: 13-14, 15-16, and 17-18.
In previous years, the event has been designed and produced by Blue Flame and held in a hangar at Palo Alto Airport. This year, for the first time and due to space requirements, the event was moved to a larger venue, Fox Theatre in Redwood City. I spearheaded the project as newly installed creative director of Blue Flame and director of its recently formed Design Lab.
