This is a production of "Wit" by Margaret Edson that I designed my senior year. I took my first trip to Barbizon to buy all the gels, including R114, which I used to simulate a number of different hospital machines. The crosses were done with R66, giving us an awesome cool harsh feel that also worked really nicely in other scenes.

In this dance about the merging of the dancing styles of hip hop and ballet I used the gel color Rosco 58. I used this color in my design for this dance because I wanted both to bring out the red in the costumes without creating an overbearing red effect and also wanted to represent the merging of ballet and hip hop and felt that a violet was the best color to represent it as it is both energetic like hip hop and dignified like ballet.

This scene from Acton Boxborough Regional High School's Production of Roald Dahl's The Witches utilized intense colors to create a surreal feeling for this scene. R03 made most of the frontlight, along with an R54 sidelight to cool the scene. The fog is lit with R61 at a high intensity. Directed by Linda Potter. Technical Director was Brenden Hearn.

When taking on designing Secret Garden, I was given a unique challenge of lighting a majority of the show very mysteriously and creepily; the lighting had to mirror the sorrow and dullness that all of the characters had. Then, throughout the production, the joy and adaptability of the youth characters transform the mood of the musical and inspire the happy ending.

R54 high sides.
