  1. this is ruined.
  2. If I were the lighting designer, we're going to start
  3. off with Act one scene one.
  4. Here's A were introduced to most of the characters, as
  5. well as seeing Mama's Bar for the first time.
  6. So I feel as though having that natural light coming
  7. to this makeshift bar would really show how third world
  8. this really is, as well as having this natural, pure
  9. light to be a facade as to what her business
  10. actually is, as well as a way to mask some
  11. of the traumas that these women have gone through.
  12. Act one Scene two.
  13. The place States of the bar is decorated in Christmas
  14. lights, and it's very festive, so I figured it might
  15. be dusk as it's getting packed with minors and soldiers.
  16. So I feel as though having a nice blue calming
  17. light would indicate that, as well as having thesis lighting
  18. of the twinkling Christmas lights ECU unseen creep.
  19. Here we have Sophie painting Salima Snails, and we find
  20. out that she's pregnant and it's morning, so I would
  21. like for it to have that golden ray of light
  22. to show the early hours of the day, and it
  23. show kind of against the characters to show that they're
  24. hiding something or they're really struggling with their inner demons,
  25. as you can see in this painting, how the light
  26. creeps in through the trees while also know illuminating them.
  27. That glancing for here we meet the commander and we
  28. find out that it's just so I would like to
  29. show the general colors of a sunset, which is the
  30. light blue, purple two pink, as well as having the
  31. lesser characters contrast with the main characters.
  32. You can see here how the ash not contrast with
  33. the background behind them, and I would like to indicate
  34. the important characters of the scene, which would be Mama
  35. and Commander, as well as showing how they're living their
  36. own world.
  37. Well, there's chaos buying them.
  38. Act one, scene five.
  39. It's morning, and here's when we find out that Sophie
  40. has been stealing from Mama and course she gets angry
  41. with her, but again, she feels respect issues one of
  42. the first girls to ever try to steal from her.
  43. So I feel as though having a warm light would
  44. not only indicate the time of day, but also kind
  45. of represent home almost feeling as even though she's angry
  46. with Sophie, she still feels kind of warm towards her
  47. act. One Scene six.
  48. In the scene, Christian comes in being shocked and feeling
  49. disbelief towards the actions of war and what he's seen
  50. on his on the road.
  51. And we also meet Fortune and Simon as the answer,
  52. looking for Salima.
  53. So I feel as though having a very dry and
  54. natural looking setting would work well.
  55. It feels all the lighting should represent how mom was
  56. feeling as she lies to fortune, saying that she doesn't
  57. live here, so I want the lighting to be as
  58. almost as ambiguous as possible.
  59. Next up is Act two, Scene one.
  60. This one is a real short scene, but it's raining
  61. as Moloch and Sophie, or singing and fortune is outfront
  62. taking guard until he gets a Lima.
  63. So I wanted Teoh contrast between the inside five and
  64. the outside vibe.
  65. So of course it's raining, so it's gonna be kind
  66. of dark where fortune is.
  67. But I also wanted to contrast it with the light
  68. grey that's coming out of the bar.
  69. Act two, Scene two.
  70. In the scene we find out of Selena's past and
  71. why she ran away and will not speak to Fortune
  72. for the scene.
  73. It's very serious and very depressing, in my opinion.
  74. And for that I would like to have a more
  75. somber lighting like he can see here with the cool
  76. colors released, shining through and having an emphasis on Salima
  77. like this painting, I would like for her to have
  78. a sort of warm color pointing at her, but at
  79. the same time, she is reflected something much darker and
  80. colder to show that although she's shows this kind of
  81. front, she's still holding onto this guilt as she feels
  82. that it was all her fault for a big Raped
  83. a Que Scene three.
  84. It's raining and nighttime.
  85. So this is one Simon trustee, a fortune to go
  86. back to the base and try to forget Salima.
  87. So for this, I picture a kind of warm light.
  88. A Simon only means well, but also it's nighttime and
  89. fortune is feeling this disregard and depression, as I would
  90. like to the light to show that nutrients we were
  91. feeling when we first madame to be met with this
  92. kind of darkness, back to scene for in the scene.
  93. We meet the rebel leader as well as the leader
  94. of the government's army.
  95. So I want the lighting here to be much more
  96. uneasy and a little disheveled as it kind of catches
  97. Mama off guard as she tries to play both sides
  98. of this war just to make sure that her business
  99. doesn't struggle to seen five We are currently outside, as
  100. this is when Fortune tells the key mender that the
  101. rebel leader has visited Mama's bar right before he came
  102. over. So for this I would like the same neutral
  103. kind of lighting is I feel like it should tie
  104. with Fortune is we really don't know what his motives
  105. are, but have it to have more shades as we
  106. see him going under Mama's nose and snitching on her.
  107. Essentially, as you can see here, how I would like
  108. the commanders to be Braley lip as you see these
  109. three women on the right and then have fortune shaded
  110. as you see the Children on the left, back to
  111. Scene six.
  112. Here. It's morning, and this is when Mama gives the
  113. diamond collector the diamond to pay for Sophie's reconstructive surgery.
  114. For this I would let the natural like to come
  115. in as to show some kind of hopefulness, impurity.
  116. And then, of course, when that all goes to the
  117. wall, I would like the when the attack comes in.
  118. The white flash that comes by is represented by this
  119. painting here on the bottom, right, and I would like
  120. for it to be kind of like a strobe effect
  121. where the black and white kind of bounce off of
  122. each other.
  123. And then it reverses back toothy painting on the left,
  124. where it's the morning and the light is shining through
  125. to seen seven, I feel is all the lighting should
  126. match the first scene.
  127. As here we find out Mama is ruined as well.
  128. And I would like just for it to show this
  129. innocents that she's feeling as she's putting her guard down
  130. for the first time and to have this feeling that
  131. she's been spared from the scene before.
  132. For the lighting, I would like for not to just
  133. show the time of day.
  134. I would also like it to somewhat represent the characters
  135. as well, Like I said, how the warm light would
  136. correlate with Mama and the cold light with Sylvie Mo
  137. when she tells her story
