Drama 16 Stage Lighting

2) Attribute the Photo, tell us where it came from.

This is a photo I took last February when I was in the city.

3) THEME: Cold

4) DESCRIPTION:

Small glowing lights sparkle amidst the gloomy skies overhead. The clouds blanketing the horizon with a bright white that soon fades to blue. Evenly distributed cool tones distinguish the sky from the cars passing by. Despite the blowing wind, the warmth of the grandeur buildings creates a picturesque view.

1) DATE-TIME-LOCATION: 2/17/21- 9 pm, Hofstra Intramural Fields

2) OBJECTIVE DESCRIPTION: The back corner of the field had some light from one of the small lamps, so that is where the ultimate frisbee team gathered on this day in order to play.

3) SUBJECTIVE DESCRIPTION: The only light on the fields shining down from the small lamp posts on the outskirts of the fields. Humans crowded on the nearby hill surrounding the small flood of white light. Their shadows mix with the soft edged darkness surrounding their dimly lit playing field. The steam coming off their bodies from their heat and breath floating upwards. Some figures stand far off to the side in order to toss the disc back and forth. To passing cars and persons, they all look like ghosts hiding in the shade.

This is a photo I took of my friend Angela on January 3rd of 2020. It had been raining while we were walking around so we decided to sit in this coffee shop to dry off and warm up.

3) THEME: Romance

4) DESCRIPTION:

Romance is not always some grand gesture. It is found in the bright overcast skies dripping rain that causes you to duck into a cozy coffee shop. Dimly lit with softly glowing bulbs illuminating one another’s smiles. The wood and brick contrasting with the white light pouring in through the windows and door. But your focus remains on the way they sip their coffee, dry their hair, or listen to your stories. Maybe a dark coffee shop is where the brightest of inner light can be found.

1) DATE-TIME-LOCATION: 2/10/21- 5:30 pm- My dorm room (3rd floor of Vander Poel Hall)

2) OBJECTIVE DESCRIPTION: The sun was in the middle of setting and reflecting off the tower across from my building.

3) SUBJECTIVE DESCRIPTION: As the sun slips further and further below the trees, its reflection follows the slow pace. The vibrant orange tones light everything in their path, creating an aura of warmth across the snowy grounds. The clean snow sits like pools on the grass and the sun’s path spills into the collected flurries with a growing crescendo.

I took this photo in January of 2021 on my way home from Myrtle Beach, SC. (So this picture was taken somewhere in SC.)

3) THEME: Sunset/Sunrise

4) DESCRIPTION: The sun always manages to fight through its cloudy roadblocks in order to brighten the sky. Amber glows bright and warm amidst the continually darkening skies. A layered farewell before the night sweeps across the golden light.
