Light Lab #1

Vermont: For this lighting design I used both scrollers to create a light pink and orange light that covered my actor nicely. I also wanted to make them more 3 dimensional, so I dimmed the lights on the stage left side a tad to create that effect. I had the intensity down slightly for this one generally because I envision a sunset as a low and dim light. Overall, I think it looks much how a sunset would, especially in these condition. (That being Vermont)

The Cathedral: This one is where I decided to use the Gobo lights hanging just above the actor on either side. Just like my last design, this one is dimmer on stage left to signify which direction the sun would be to the person inside the church. I chose paler color and mixed in some light pinks and orange to make it seem like stain-glass. 

Hawaii: I always envision a sort of dryness when I think of the tropics. So I chose the same color from my first design, but I also implemented a spotlight directly above the actor to give them a noon sun look. I also have them a door light to signify their shadows on their right side. I think it has a very arid feel to it, so I feel justified in my use of the dusty colors.

Winter Afternoon: Finally, the dark winter. I gave it a dark blue and lightened it up a little with a light blue on the stage right side. I gave it a light blue spot on the top of the theater. Last of all, I added a navy blue by toning down the intensity of a ELR from downstage left.
