Lighting Moments 10 & 11-Cat, 360

Lighting moment 10

This moment is from earlier in Novemeber when the nights were super clear. I was walking home from the CFA, and I looked down a path and saw the streetlamps. They looked like floating orbs of light with the faint light shining on the ground. It was very pretty.
One way to portray this would be to hang orbs of light (lights in an opaque sphere) in rows from the ceiling. This is very similar to the hanging light bulb idea from the play Road.


Lighting Moment 11


In Bihall’s astronomy tower, there is a red light in the main room. It causes the whole room to be red. It is not the best lighting moment, but viewing it from outside is interesting. You can see this one square patch of soft glowing red light against the grayish background.
I could use an ERS or fresnel as a down-pool and square it off. Then I could give a red front light to the area. This could go anywhere on stage. Depending on where the dancer is situated and whether or not people are moving around the dancer, there could be red shins or side lighting (only if dancer is close to one edge, though).
