Drama 16 Stage Lighting

1) Thursday Feb. 3 2011, 12:00 P.M.

2) The noon-time sun reflecting off the snow in front of Constitution Hall.

3) The sun at noon was strong, and my eye was unaccustomed to the brightness after days of cloud cover. Walking out of my building, I was struck by the brightness of the sun reflecting off the snow. The light-colored brick of the graduate building caused the whole scene to blend together. It felt abrasively cold (emotionally speaking) and very jarring. The brightness felt out of place in an area as developed and urban as Hempstead.

3)  COLD

4)  The bare trees express a cold feeling and the snow also helps achieve the feeling of freezing or ice.  The fog in the background also reflects a cold and still environment.  The colors are muted and have a grayish tone that also contributes to the cold feeling.  There is some lighting effects but the light is white and not yellow so it is perceived harsher, highlighting the absence of warm soft yellow sunlight.
