October 15, 2012 Warm Up: Why are front lights important in a lighting design? Does that make them more important that fill lights? Objective: Students will complete their sample lighting design and instrument schedule.

Review Can you use the magic number to create acting areas on stage? Can you place your front lights onstage for each acting area? Do you know the primary difference between a front light (ERS/spotlight) versus a fill light (PAR or Fresnel)?

To spot or to fill? Spotlights identify specific areas of the stage. Fill lights light up general areas of the stage. Spotlights must fit (or go slightly larger) than an acting area. Fill lights can go as big as you want. What is the trade off in terms of intensity of the light?

Placing Fill Lights 1. Determine where you want the light to shine and what it’s going to do. – Color Wash – spreading color of the stage – Side Light – more directly to the side, specifically in dance – Mood/Accent lighting – back lighting/cool shadows effects 2. Put it there and note what kind of light it is: Fresnel (Fres) or PAR

Color Theory – as simply as I can Lighting color is different from paint color. Paint color is a reflection of light from a colored surface (you only see the light it is reflecting). Do you know how your eye works? Lighting Color is the light allowed through the gel and that shines on stage. Vote: Do you want more understanding of how stage light coloring works?

Applying Colors to stage lights Choose your colors from a color book (sorry, Barbizon had ONE extra…so we’re going to have to share or something). You should have a warm and a cool color for your front lights that are fairly unsaturated (>75% transmission). This allows us to actually see what’s happening. Colors with <25% transmission are difficult to discern as front lights

Applying Color Choose your side/fill/special colors. Write down the names and numbers somewhere for your instrument schedule. Each color goes with the rest of your information on your plot (board example)

Numbering Lights Conventions: Keep colors in families. Examples: Warm Front lights 1-6, Cool Front lights 7-12, Green Wash 20-25, Yellow Wash 30-35, ect… We name lights for each of programming light board and setting up control channels and cues.
