Drama 16 Stage Lighting

1. Wednesday, March 29th, around 7:00pm. In my dorm.
2. The setting Sun was coming through my window and hitting my roommate’s fish tank causing a tiny square of rainbow to hit certain spots of the room.
3. I’ve always enjoyed seeing spots of rainbow due to how the Sun hits specific objects. The fish tank is fairly new, so previous sunsets never caused random rainbows to show up in my room. The placement of the fish tank was at an angle, so there was one rainbow on my side of the room and one on my roommate’s. This provided a nice balance, especially as the Sun continued to set and the rainbows moved across my room. It provided a nice calming or relaxing mood and a nice little sparkle of vibrance to a bland dorm room.

1) DATE-TIME-LOCATION: 4/7/2020 around 8:45pm in my room in West Hempstead, NY

2) OBJECTIVE DESCRIPTION: All the lights in my room were off except for my fish tank light.

3) SUBJECTIVE DESCRIPTION: After closing my blinds and shutting off my lights, I noticed that the only light in my room was that of Betta O’Rourke’s tank (my foster fish). He was swimming around gracefully as the yellowish-greenish light from above his tank lit up a corner of my room. 

1) 2/2/18 – 6:00 PM in my dorm room

2) It is completely dark in my room except for my white and blue fish tank lights. I have two tanks that sit on a tall shelf at the end of my bed. At this time, the top tank is set on the blue setting while the one underneath is set on a white/blue mix. I sit leaning against my wall, therefore the tanks are on my right.

3) As I closed my laptop from doing homework, the beautiful shine of the LED lights of the tanks gave me a sense of happiness. Because I had finished most of my homework for the day, it was very uplifting to see the only light in the room to be the source of my little fishies. The light was fairly bright, however not at all as abrasive as my laptop screen had been like just before. It was a hopeful sight to see after working on homework and projects.

This picture was taken while on our boat at our vacation spot at Lake Champlain in Vermont. My extended family has been taking this trip every summer since my great grandparents found the spot about 60 or 70 years ago. My family, aunts, uncles, and cousins still meet at the same spot on this lake and spend two weeks fishing, swimming, boating, and hanging out. This picture puts me in a place and gives me a feeling I can only get on our boat in this lake. It is a feeling of total freedom and exhilaration.

nightlife

I chose this photo for nightlife because when I think about nightlife i feel like the events are more important than the surroundings. In movies and TV shows the focus is on the events and the surroundings are blurred and not distinct. I picked this picture because the light is the yellow of a streetlight and the camera has a fisheye lens so it isn’t natural. The lights on the buildings are very bright but not individually distinguishable.
