Hi everyone:
I'm designing a regional mainstage production of THE WIZARD OF OZ this December and am trying to figure out all of the special effects that need to happen now.
1) The Witch, Glinda, and the Monkeys will be flying. What should I know about lighting flying actors. As far as making sure they're seen and not the cables attached to them.
2) The eyes on the wizard's head are going to light up. They should flash and dim with the wizard's voice. This would be impossible to cue and the only way I could think of doing it would be putting it on a submaster for the Board Op. Although, since it s a regional show and NEEDS to be the same and consistent each show (like it needs to follow the actors voice and not be a second late) I was wondering if there's any way to sync it with the wizard's mic so that as his mic level changes it will change the percentage of the light. How expensive would that be?
Thanks in advance!!
Best,
Joe
