Preview


So we have changed the set this week more for fun than anythings else. Joseph's band debuts this week so I thought it would be fun to do something different. I wanted a rougher small stage look so I scoured Chicago land Goodwill stores and got a bunch of great lamps for really cheap. I then put 4 sc40 pipes in some bases we had and put 3 source 4 pars with 575w lamps on each pipe. I left the random lenses in the top 8 in the bottom 4 we put a very narrow lens and pointed them up at the ceiling. the top 8 fixtures are focused at the band. The lamps are on 6 different channels so we can do a random chase and have a really cool look. Not really sure what imagery is going on the big screen in the center or the side screens... I know it's Friday but I'm sure inspiration will come soon.

Theatrical


So we went with a theatrical look at Park today. After a lot of changes at the last minute due to several key players being sick the music changed at the very last minute, Saturday at 1:30. The "band" ended up being a single voice with piano. We had a single look for all the music.

I created this by overlaying a gilded frame over an image of burgundy drapes and adding some lighting effects in photo shop. I then washed the curtains in red to match.

Park usually has more of a raw urban feel so the classier look was very different for us.
