I see this as one of my first 'professional' gigs, it was an amateur pantomime, but in a professional theatre and with an approach from lighting that I see no reason to be applied to a professional show with minor adjustments. I was initially meant to assist with the prior LD/Chief LX but when they could no longer make the show a week before rehearsals started, I took over and with occasional tips, I built a 3D model of the theatre, decided on a plot thinking about opinions of the prior LD and the venue techs, visualised and pre-programmed the entire show before successfully executing it. With this show, my design was fairly simple with the NODA report describing it as functional and supporting the action. Dynamic changes were suggested as an improvement and I do agree with this. I lit each scene according to the environment with colour changes and effects for moments of action and for songs etc, in my next show, I certainly agree that with more confidence from this show, I'll be able to explore more and more ideas and dynamic changes to bring more life and atmosphere. The NODA report did suggest colour changes or temperature changes, however, this was more of a technical barrier than a design choice. These did occur more frequently than may have been noticed. Our LEDs were not as powerful as I expected and I was hoping for a much better wash, additionally, all our front-light were generics. Half of them were warm gels (L205), the other half were cooler gels (Can't accurately recall). The cooler gels were being used in both scenes of magic and scenes of dim and dingy lairs. Hence, I couldn't make the gels imbalanced to one side more than the other. Next time, I'd ideally use LED profiles as well as more powerful wash fixtures, a lesson to learn and remember for next time we're in this venue or any venue. One note is that I would not use more profiles to provide more fixtures with different gels for front light. Our venue was limited and I believe it better to adapt using more powerful fixtures or other methods rather than relying that venues have all the fixtures they claim and are as capable than they most often are. There is LOTS more to talk about and that's in my report that goes towards my production arts BTEC. Overall, I'm very proud of having actually achieved this show where 90-95% (not actually calculated) was independent work that I managed to figure out, the director commented it was exactly what he was looking for and for that I'm proud that it actually worked, and it worked for the director.
