Drama 16 Stage Lighting

1. March 29, 2018 – 7:10pm – Hofstra Parking Lot
2. I was walking home and passed by a puddle. The puddle was about 5 feet wide and was translucent, showing the dirty road underneath it. I had saw that the street light had been projected onto the puddle. The whole pole and lamp were not visible on the puddle, just the light.
3. This puddle had gone from something that was dull, to something that was magical. The light brightened up the puddle, and made it almost look like it came to life. As the wind created ripples through the water, the light remained constant.

2. On the side walk there was a little clear puddle on the floor like a mirror and in the middle there was a flash bright zig zag white purple line which was lighting.
3. I was walking to one of my classes and it was raining. I looked down and there as a bunch of puddles around me. One in particular caught my eye because it was like a flash of purple light for a quick second. Even though it was for a few seconds it was enough time to observe the detail of the light. It was a crooked, bent, curved line. What really made the shape stand out was the color of white and purple. I thought it was really pretty and interesting to see an exotic light coming from the sky. For a moment I was shook because I was viewing this through a puddle and still got to see detail as if I was looking up into the sky.

1) DATE-TIME-LOCATION: 03/23/11 Walk way near Lowe

2) OBJECTIVE DESCRIPTION:  Sun reflecting in a puddle

3) SUBJECTIVE DESCRIPTION: As I walked around the usually disgusting puddle that is in the middle of the walk way near bits and bytes I noticed the suns beams reflecting of the surface water. It gave the usually muddy greenish water a special quality. It appeared to be glittering and glowing. Like an oasis in the middle of a desert.

1.) Thursday Feb. 24th 2011, 11:10 P.M. J.C. Adams Playhouse stage door.

2.) Various lights reflected in a puddle.

3.) It was raining when rehearsal let out tonight, and it had been for a while, and there were puddles on the ground in the parking lot. In the puddles, reflections of the orange-colored lights from the stage door overhang was mixing with the various whitish lights from car headlights in the parking lot, and even a bit of the fluorescent light from the NAB across the parking lot. The effect of the dancing lights in the puddles felt cool (literally and figuratively) and impassioned, very urban and a little melancholy. I thought it would be a great establishing shot for a film.
