Ok, in a nutshell....
I volunteer at a middle school. I direct, make all the costumes, build all the sets, my husband runs the light booth, my daughter runs the spotlight. We have no outside help. Yes, it's a big job.
We are doing R&H Cinderella. I've designed and built all the sets to create a flat white palette. My vision is to create a lovely mood with lighting. I have my ideas but am not sure of gel colors. I want to generally use violet-pink-turquoise-sky blue-amber tones but don't want the actors to look ridiculous. I know zero about lighting but have been pleased with my past several shows.
We have about 120 working ellipsoidals and an amazing brand new Strand system (that no one knows how to use) but we have to borrow a cherry picker to move and add gels to them...so we need to get it right the first time.
Here's what I'm going for http://drama.arts.uci.edu/sites/default/files/woods%205-resized.jpg
My set turned out great, now I need help choosing the proper gel colors.
thanks for any and all advice,
Robyn
