Drama 16 Stage Lighting

Date: May 15, 2022 – 8:34 Pm

Location – Outside Spiegel

Objective Description – on the steps of Speigel with the overhead light behind us

Subjective description – a group of us who recently received APO bids excitedly rushed to the Spiegel steps with paper in hand for a photo. The gold “alphies” balloons hanging above us reflecting the yellow lightbulb illuminating the steps. Hints of light from the pre-eclipsed moon and garden lights helping to light the faces in the image.

Location: Field next to tower dorms

Objective description: sunset peaking through the trees onto the grass.

Subjective description: Summer creeping in symbolized by the sunset navigating its way between the various branches, leaves, and birds blocking its rays. The green grass illuminated into brightened patches as the shadows create images of windy life onto the ground.

Date: Saturday May 14, 2022 – 9:50 PM

Location: Forest Hills Stadium

Objective Description: Purple, Cyan, Blue,  and Amber light beams on stage at Rex Orange County.

Subjective Description: The song “Open a Window” is playing as the stark beams of colorful like scan the stage. Rex, standing center stage wearing a bright orange jumpsuit, being front lit by a soft white spotlight. The fog in the sky creating a natural haze for the lights to exude off of, and the environment is so lively. The discoball flowers in the back of the stage refracting all the tiny light particles back into the audience creating a 360 party in the stadium.

2) OBJECTIVE DESCRIPTION: I was on my way back from the city pretty late at night and the train station had a really cool yellow lighting. It contrasted really well with the metal beams.

3) SUBJECTIVE DESCRIPTION: Having warmth within a cold environment conveys a sense of comfort in an otherwise harsh environment. 

I decided on this picture because I think that the dry and stale lighting is very springy to me. It looks like I would walk out and sneeze not just because of the flowers.

 For my wildcard picture I decided on a picture that I took waiting for Six the musical start.  I love the contrast between the blues and the orange.

 For me summer lighting means one thing and that is the color blue. I chose this image because the lighting is completely saturated. It feels as bright as it could be.

For this week’s post I decided to go with a ominous gas station this reminds me of something that you would pass in the middle of nowhere and would make you feel like you’re in a horror movie. I think that the green fluorescent lighting is a great way to feel as if time is almost pause.

For this week’s post I decided to go with a sunset lamp which is a really cool way to get a single-source light on something. I actually have one in my dorm. This is an image that I pulled. I really like the rings around the light. It creates a point of focus.

This week’s theme is nightlife. I decided to go with an image of a street after dark with some hearts projected into the sky. It gave me the same feeling as walking home really late on a summer night with my friends.
