Drama 16 Stage Lighting

March 25th-7:00pm-Crossing the Millard E. Tydings Memorial Bridge on Interstate 95

The sun was setting with yellows, blues, and greens and the light was still high enough that it caught the water. Yellow light reflected off the water making the water’s color a complete mystery whether it was blue, clear, or more greenish.

The reflected light shimmered in the water like a soothing hum lingering in the air. The sky blended with the water in color tone to become one shattered sort of mirror of the sky. It was peaceful and harmonious like a sharing of ideas and spread of beautiful light across the world. The shimmering golden lit water was breathtaking. The sunset made the scene like a fairytale. It was all so fantasy-like that it was surreal. It has the magical feeling associated with it like what would be felt if a penny was dropped into a wishing fountain and then the fountain’s water miraculously turned a more cooper-like color. With its magical qualities or really qualities of the beauty of nature, the lighting was like an enchanted reality.

March 10th, 11PM, Outside Charlotte Convention Center

OBJECTIVE DESCRIPTION: There is a light shining against a wall. The light is in a pool of water, and the wall is up against the water. Due to the falling water nearby, the water is moving, which is causing the light to shimmer against the wall.

SUBJECTIVE DESCRIPTION: The shimmering light has an almost ethereal quality. Because it is a reflection of the water against the wall, it looks almost like the opposite of water: shimmering in the same way but white, not blue, and holding no weight.
