Drama 16 Stage Lighting

ATTRIBUTES: Photo I found on the internet

THEME: Nightlife

DESCRIPTION: I chose this photo because of the cool tones from the blue mixing with the warmer red tones both coming together and reflecting off of the arms of the people dancing. The black background also helps to emphasize the colors of the light reflecting off of the people and the disco balls in the background also help to reflect more of the light while not stealing the focus from the people.

Date: 2-22-22

Time: 5:15 pm

Location: Bottom floor of the engineering building

Objective Description: There were TVs and lights with yellow and blue on them shining through a crossed pattern on the windows of the big data lab which then shone the color on the floor of the hallway.

Subjective Description: The yellow and blue lights created a series of triangles on the ground whose edges blurred to a glow. The shapes were a stark contrast to the dim and drab hallway they shone in like an illuminating pathway cutting into the darkness.

1. DATE – TIME – LOCATION: February 26, 3PM, Constitution TV
2. OBJECTIVE DESCRIPTION: The video of Sigmacapella’s stage lighting for the ICCAs. There was a backdrop that was lit with orange light and there was blue light shining down on top of them.
3. SUBJECTIVE DESCRIPTION: The bright orange light in the background contrasts with the black outfits the people are wearing which draws the focus on the people performing while also lighting the stage in one vibrant light. The cooler blue light shining down on top of them contrasts well with the warmness of the orange and creates a simple yet dynamic set to highlight the performers.

1) DATE-TIME-LOCATION: My friend Erin’s house in Rockland County, NY; Tuesday, February 22, 2022; 2:30 a.m.

2) OBJECTIVE DESCRIPTION: A multicolored scent wax-melting lamp shone different shades of red, yellow, blue, and pink light on the wall in an otherwise unlit room.

3) SUBJECTIVE DESCRIPTION: Though the room was silent and dark, as most are (and probably should be) in the middle of the night, the multihued stained glass wax-melter glowed its many colors on the wall. The soft heat, scent, and ambience created by the lamp warmed the hearts of the friends quiet in awe of the moment. The colors and warm glow were angelic, creating peaceful feelings all around.

1) DATE-TIME-LOCATION: Friday, February 4, 2022; 9:15 PM; Netherlands North Back Gate

2) OBJECTIVE DESCRIPTION: The sky was pitch black, but the street lights cast yellow beams through the slots of the turnstile, projecting out towards the dorms and shining in the thick fog.

3) SUBJECTIVE DESCRIPTION: The subtle but stark contrast between the sparkling, bright white beams in the fog and the gloomy and empty veil cast over the sky created an eerie, haunting, almost ghostly mood. The haze was blinding, hiding the details of the deserted surroundings, silent with sleep. No clouds walked the skies, but the soft glow of the moon in the distance created a gradient in the background. The air was full of anticipation, on edge waiting for the next sudden scream or yell of excitement.
