Lighting Moment, Week 7-Cat, 360

The other day I was walking to dinner with Liz and we saw a beautiful sunset. The sky was pink melting into a light orange into yellow. The clouds in the sky were colored from fuchsia to a dark periwinkle and added a nice textured look to the sky.

One way to recreate it might be to use the cyc as the sky in the background and the dancers as the clouds. The cyc might not have the color gradation at the same time like the sky, but it could fade from a light yellow through light orange to pink and eventually a deep bluish-purple over the span of a few minutes. The dancers could be lit from the high sides with a dark periwinkle-like color, while the lit from below using a pinkish hue from the shins. The shins would probably be slightly angled up as well. I don’t think any front light would be used since clouds were shadowy.
