1. A Fall Sunset in Vermont
Instruments 1-4 are hung USR using gel R32 at full with a 36 degree flood and soft focus. Instruments 3-6 are hung two positions below instruments 1-4 SR and are using gel R40 at full with a 36 degree flood and soft focus. The top cyc lights are using gel R74 at 80% and the bottom cyc lights are using gel R11 at 65%.
The lower hanging lights are representative of the direct sunlight as it is about ti set while the upper hanging lights is the brighter pinker light that fills the sky. The blue light on the cyc represents the color that slowly takes over the sky in a sunset’s last few minutes.
2. Easter Sunrise in a Gothic Cathedral
Instrument 1 is hanging in the upstage SR corner using gel R45 at full with a 50 degree flood and soft focus. Instrument 2 is hanging in the upstage SR corner using gel R68 at full with a 50 degree flood and soft focus. Instrument 3 is one hanging position below instruments 1 and 2 SR; it is using gel R13 at full with a 50 degree flood and soft focus. All instruments are using the “Breakup” gobo.
The gobo is giving the impression of the light coming through a stained glass window, along with the colored light that the Sun gives off when shining through the stained glass. The light is coming from SR like the Sun has just begin rising in the East.
3. Noon on a Hot Summer Day
The bottom cyc lights are using gel R75 at full. Instruments 1 and 2 are at the downstage corners using gel R313 at full with a 90 degree flood and soft focus. Instruments 3, 4, and 5, are center stage using gel 313 at full with a 50 degree flood and soft focus.
The direct overhead center stage light represents the direct overhead Sun at noon and the light that the corner instruments give off helps fill the space to give more of a hotter feeling. The blue cyc gives the illusion of the Caribbean sea.
4. Winter Afternoon Just Before the Snow
Instruments 1-6 are in every corner hanging position with gel L201 at full with a 90 degree flood and soft focus. The top and bottom cyc lights have no gel and are at full. Instrument 7 is DC using gel R67 at full with a 90 degree flood and soft focus. Instruments 8 and 10 are in the downstage and center hanging positions that split center and SL; they are using gel R67 at full with a 90 degree flood and a soft focus. Instrument 9 is in line with instruments 8 and 10 at the upstage hanging position; it is using gel R67 at full with a 50 degree flood and a soft focus.
There is a flood of white light that gives off the harsh white hue that Winter air seems to have. The flood of blue is the Sun’s Winter Light, and the more distinct blue beam shows where the Sun’s afternoon light is directly coming from.
