background
this is a class project which we design and learn how to draft for a play. this play has 3 acts that surround different types of relationships and how each character starts and ends in their way. it happens indoor at a diner under cold, stormy weather in one night.
process
i approach the play by reading and highlighting the visual and environmental elements that are mentioned in the play. then i work on visual research to find inspirations of the mood i am interested in creating. i re-read the play multiple times before deciding where to put the lights and how i can maximize the use of the venue. afterward, i pick the appropriate instruments to make sure every focus area is lit. then, i start drafting and revising until everything is right.
challenges
this is my first time hand drafting a light plot and line weight is one of the things that is the hardest to master. to understand what instruments to pick and where to carefully plan and put them in order to maximize the use of the pipes and the space.
