Lighting Observation #5

Date, Time, Location: 2/28/19, 7:55pm, John Crawford Adams Playhouse

Objective Description: There is a light all the way upstage and closer to stage right that is hidden behind some different ropes. It was creating a backlit image.

Subjective Description: This light had made me feel like the ropes were mysterious because you couldn’t see any detail from the angle of where I was standing. It is also one of the only warmer lights in the entire backstage.

Lighting Observation 5

Date: 2/25/19; evening; Hofstra parking lot

Objective: A light from a street lamp illuminates the shards of a destroyed set piece.

Subjective: To sound melodramatic it felt as though the light was shining on a crime I’ve done. As if I had destroyed a life essence by destroying the piece.

Some people tend to overlook the beautiful scenery that can appear in everyday life and how picturesque those moments can be.

It was hard for me to find single light sources so I decided to create my own. I used my desk lamp as the only light on, and above it are some of my paintings. I was surprised at how the light was able to light up the paintings above so well were.

Date/time/location: 2-28-19, 7 pm Nassau Collesium

I was at the Islanders game tonight and before the game started, they had a video presentation to pump the fans up. They started by having a single light project onto the ice which was projecting the entire hype up video. I was amazed that they weren’t using more than one light source to project the images.

2: One light source infront of The Space At Westbury

3: I was just getting out of work at 2:00am. My boyfriend at the time and I were walking to his car and saw this shoe and it reminded us of Cinderella’s shoe left on the steps. Later we found out the shoe belonged to a woman involved in an altercation in Westbury.

Date/Time/Location: 2/27/2019, 6:30 pm, Hofstra Dorm Room

Objective Description: I was cat sitting my friends little mush. While I’m laying there she had her LED strips on for her plants, Wall lights, and her fish tank lights.

Subjective Description: There were so many sources of light around me. Even though one would think that it would be overly stimulating I was actually quite relaxed.

Lighting Observation 5

The Adams Playhouse, Friday, February 22nd, at some point after 8:00, but before 10:00
Brian had been playing with different lighting things he could do for the show, and had dimmed the lights on the balcony, and added flickering reddish-orange lights spaced out along the wall.
The lighting was intended to give the illusion of a dungeon, with torches placed along the walls. It was unfortunately cut from the final product but getting to see that lighting was so awe-inspiring. Watching it, I genuinely felt like the scene was taking place in a dungeon, and it was able to take me out of the space, out of the Globe stage, and made me truly see the space as the tower.

Single Light Source
The lighting is shaped into a box shape, with very distinctive edges, so that it is easy to discern where the light is hitting. It illuminates Roxie (my dog) in such a way that she appears both angelic in nature and like a beacon of hope. Due to the brightness of the light coming down, it creates a starker contrast between Roxie’s head and her surroundings, reminiscent of a sewer grate being removed over a dark area of the sewer system, only this is a much nicer vision (though the smell probably isn’t that different).

Date/Time/Location: 2/19/19, 7pm, Prom the Musical

Objective Description: The chandelier was lit before the show began. I took picture of the theater and the light coming off of it looked like a straight horizontal line in the picture.

Subjective Description: A UFO hovered near the ceiling of the theater . . .or it was a chandelier with lens flares.
