Light Observation 9

1) March 2, ~9:00PM; Adams Playhouse

2) The lighting design for Richard II, Act 3 scene 3

3) In 3.3, I am part of the group that watches Richard and Aumerle at the top of Flint Castle. I understood the concept of the McCandless “warm and cool” lights, but I’m glad I got to see it in action (I am right, right??) At the top of Flint Castle, Richard and Aumerle are lit by a blue-white light and a yellow-white light. Correct me if I’m wrong, but I think the blueish light is the warm and the yellowish is the cool. I always associate blue with cool and yellow with warm, so it was exciting to see them working in reverse.
