Drama 16 Stage Lighting

1. Date: Valentine’s Day 2018, Time: about 7:20pm, Location: City Cellar Wine Bar & Grill, restaurant in Westbury, NY
2. In a dimly lit restaurant, there are two walls lined with shelves of several LED candles, appearing to flicker continuously.
3. With it being the eve of Valentine’s Day, the most common tradition associated with the holiday is to go out with a significant other for a romantic dinner. I am settling down at the table when I notice right in front of me, two walls parallel to each other. Both are aligned with warm, flickering candles, leading to either the door or the venue.

3) Romantic

4) A romantic feeling is defined differently for every person. The specifics can be immensely contrasting but it all relates. Everyone knows what it’s like to be in love, have a romantic relationship, or just simply butterflies in your stomach. The warm feeling of being close to someone is really captured in this light. I love that you can’t see the flame of the candle, but you can practically feel the soft and warm light glowing off it. It feels like a sunrise: sharing it with someone you care about.

3) Theme: Romantic

4) When I saw this photo, I felt it fit the theme of romantic perfectly. The atmosphere in the room is calming and relaxing. Candles are what provides all of the lighting in this room. The rose pedals, champagne bottles and other items signify romance. I like the way the candles on the right hand side of the photo bring out the most light. You can see the reflection of the candle on the white wall of the room. Also, there are many shadows on the wall where the candles are not placed. You can see the different shades of lighting on the wall.

What, Where: One of my friend’s photo projects, her name is Ashley, she is near candles, its exciting.

Theme: Dealers Choice: Candles

Description: This picture portrays concern because of the unnatural angle of shadow made by the candles onto Ashley’s face. It also has a disturbing amount of curiosity about the story she is telling, due to the pure darkness behind her. I find the symmetry in the sources to be interesting and playful, but the orange glow to be frustrating and illumination.
