Drama and Terms
stage lighting - intentional light qualities including
intensity, color, and direction; intentional
functions including selective visibility,
revelation of form, composition, focus, mood,
location and time of day, projection/stage
elements, and advance plot (script)
Stage lighting has multiple functions, including:
Focus: Directing the audience's attention to an area of the
stage or distracting them from another.
Mood: Setting the tone of a scene. Harsh red light has
a different effect than soft lavender light.
Location and time of day: Establishing or altering position in
time and space. Blues can suggest night time while orange and
red can suggest a sunrise or sunset.
Stage Lighting
Example:
(Spotlight full. Birds singing. People are
walking around the town.)
