So my high school theater is producing A Shayna Maidel in a little under two weeks from now. We have around 15 Lekos, 20 Pars, 2 Movers, 2 3-Cell Cycs and 6 Mini Cycs to use for this. We have a really small budget but are creative in pulling things off professionally. We have 3 lighting bars over the stage and a lighting grid over the seating area to hang things. Total of 48 Dimmers. I have read through the script many times and have many ideas. I want to make this a great show in lighting (as creative and real as possible) With just providing you all a little background, I am currently planning the back wall with R80 Cycs and Using Star Gobos for a night sky effect in the scenes that are at night. This sky will be above the eight foot set "living room" wall. The bedroom and living rooms will have a R02 wash. My personal favorite basic color for general living space. During the flashback scenes happening in Poland in the 1930s I am envisioning a R25 or R27 red color for the floor, back, and sides with R02 from the grid on their faces. For the light rising and setting, I am making a sunrise/set through cycs, mini cycs and lekos that will change in intensity of colors as the "sun effect progresses". I have a mover pattern programmed for the "sun moving up into the sky". During the day will be a R67 Sky Blue. For a fantasy glow effect in a scene or two I am envisioning R73 Peacock Blue for this. ANY THOUGHTS ON ALL THIS? PLEASE LET ME KNOW IF YOU THINK ANYTHING IS GOOD OR STUPID LOOKING. This is my first show I am designing by myself and want it to look great.
