That was one on the founding reasons I no longer take Mr. Mayor on face value including after having worked in his own department. That was a very sad day I I'm for the return. Still there are reagional airports that are not international. Waukeegan or better yet the one on Milwaukee at about Lake Cook is going to have that feel I'm thinking about amongst others in the area. Actually that one on Milwaukee would make a much better third regional airport than any others they are attempting to build for the jobs it would mean as opposed to the usefulness of it. If you build it they will come will not be an effective solution but that's outside the reality of the South Side needing votes for the local congressmen.
Anyway, hopefully this is more than just how to make an airport in concept and more of a design idea for how to design realistically in concept when scaling it down to the stage and scene - especially in making the reality of it become at one with your own design intent and vision for what you want to do. For me that key lighting would be the search light, the rest is just effect or supplemental and motivational. Even after I make the mood and setting there is still the little detail of visibility that's going to be counter productive and hard to implement with the mood and setting lighting without washing it out. Thus another part of the challenge in setting verses the primary goal of visibility.
Fascinating idea in making the black and white with trying to convey a realistic setting. Very difficult to pull off just right especially on a gymatorum stage. Zac, you get half your concepts and visions and you have indeed made magic. You do only 1/4 of that and you have done a darned good job.
