The color of the curtains with the light shining through was a very beautiful, almost late sunset kind of color. It was amazing to see even how much sunlight can influence color and how it's depicted. In terms of lighting design, I'm nervous to see how the light will look like against clothing, back drop, set, etc, and what adjustments can be made with it. At least with this photo, the warmth of the color is something that would be neat to play with onstage.
Here, I was projecting an episode of The Sopranos against my screen, and this was after taking the screen down. It's definitely not pretty, but it did get me thinking about how to play with projections and light over furniture, set, and fabric. I can see that depending on what the show requires, projections and different sources of light can provide very different moods and environments.
ooooh such great photos and commentary! Neat shadows and shapes in that first image giving great contrast between light and shadow! (sometimes the absence of light is just as important as the light itself!) Love the warmth in that window image, such beautiful airy backlight that has a real softness to it! It's a great example of how scenery (and costumes for that matter) really add sparkle to light! The color of those curtains is really enhancing the warmer tones in the late afternoon sunlight quite beautifully! And projections are the way of the future. It's a great challenge using projections as light sources, a really fun medium to play with!
