Sidney
Younger

Lighting Designer

Sidney is an emerging lighting designer based in Melbourne, and a recent graduate of the Bachelor of Fine Arts (Design and Production) at the Victorian College of the Arts (VCA).

His VCA design credits include The Spook (Director Daniela Farinacci), The Hello Girls (Director Jason Langley) and The Cripple of Inishmaan (Director Georgina Naidu). Earlier this year his coursework efforts were recognised with the Cassidy Bequest Scholarship for Production.

Outside of the VCA, Sidney enjoys working within the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra (MSO) and Orchestra Victoria’s operations teams. Currently he is designing Synaesthesia a collaboration between the MSO and Vue De Monde, premiering at the 2021 Melbourne Food and Wine Festival.

In the future, Sidney intends to further pursue architectural lighting design as part of his practice, after gaining experience within this genre during his internships with Jackson Stigwood (A Billion Suns) and John Ford (Relume Consulting) in 2021.
