  • (Purple Masque) Scenic Design Checklist
    SECOND STAGE (PURPLE MASQUE) SCENIC DESIGN CHECKLIST MANDATORY ATTENDANCE AT: All director/designer meetings Minimum of two meetings with Faculty Scenic Designer: one prior to preliminary deadline, and one prior to final deadline. All production meetings Minimum of one run-through rehearsal prior to crew watch Crew watch All technical and dress rehearsals Strike Any conflicts with attending the above meetings/rehearsals must be cleared ahead of time with the faculty designer and the director. IMPORTANT INFORMATION There is a very limited time frame for installation and painting of scenery in the masque. Therefore, it is extremely important for you to be organized prior to your load in date. Some things to consider: You will be working late nights/weekends during load in and tech, so plan ahead to have papers/homework/studying done ahead of time. “I had to write a paper so the set didn’t get done until opening night” is not a valid excuse. EVERYTHING needs to be built prior to load in. It is best if you can paint pieces beforehand, also. If you are building a large unit, make sure it will fit through all doors. Large units in pieces should be “dry fit” in the scene shop to make sure they assemble as planned. Make sure you arrange for help ahead of time. People will be more willing to assist you if they know a week or two beforehand. This is not just your show. Having the scenery unfinished not only affects the actors, but the lighting and costume designs as well. ROUGH DESIGNS Rough designs will include research image boards of conceptual, architectural and detail inspirations for the set.

We are kidding ourselves, deluded even, if we blithely think our vocation can forever skirt the norms and standards expected of other professional services. Fellow Aussie, Andrew Jaques, CLD and Director of Australian and German firm, The Flaming Beacon, underpins the problem of the profession: “Certification is a much needed and important step for the maturing of our young industry, one that would help architects and clients to have greater confidence in us as professional architectural lighting designers.” Luke Ellis, CLD and Associate IALD, and Senior Lighting Designer at EOS Lighting in Vancouver, Canada also recognises the need for professional recognition: “I saw CLD as the epitome of assessment for our unique and global profession, which would justify our role in the AEC industry.” “The significance of certification is the unassailable fact that a mature profession must be able to define competence within its ranks. Yet whilst this is standard practice in other industries, it eludes architectural lighting design.” David Becker, Chair, Certified Lighting Designer Commission Anyone Can Call Themselves A Lighting Designer It’s simply untenable that anyone, without regard to talent, aptitude or experience, can trade as an architectural lighting designer.

  • Architectural Lighting Design: a Research Review Over Fifty Years
    Architectural lighting design: A research review over fifty years KP Mansfield PhD FSLL UCL Institute for Environmental Design and Engineering, The Bartlett Faculty of the Built Environment, London, UK Short title: Architectural lighting design Received 27 June 2017; Revised 24 August 2017; Accepted 21 September 2017 Architectural developments over the past fifty years have been dramatic and have been paralleled by active research in lighting. This review traces architectural themes and the corresponding concerns of lighting researchers and explores how they have applied the results of scientific research into lighting design and application. Address for correspondence: Kevin Mansfield, UCL Institute for Environmental Design and Engineering, The Bartlett Faculty of the Built Environment, London, UK. E-mail: kevin.mansfield@ucl.ac.uk 1. Introduction Over the last fifty years a variety of buildings have been designed and erected all of which provide different interior conditions for people to experience. Architecture is a problem of construction and its resulting form depends upon the architectural elements and materials available at the time, the formal constraints due to the site and the requirements of the users. Such architecture encloses and defines space and automatically harnesses and responds to daylight. A lit space or a series of lit spaces is created through which people move and objects and surfaces are revealed. These buildings do not exist in isolation—they become part of the fabric of our towns and cities. This urban extent is revealed in daylight and needs to be lit at night. To emphasise or alter architecture, lighting technology is deployed to reinforce the daylighting or to change the purpose or the mood or the atmosphere of the building at night.

He left St. Thomas to major in theater and psychology at Marquette University in Milwaukee, WI, where he found himself drawn to the craftsmanship behind the scenes as a master electrician on set. Along his career path, he credits Candace Kling at CM Kling + Associates Inc., as an invaluable mentor who enriched his passion for architectural lighting design. “Those were the most valuable years of my professional life,” he comments. “To this day, I owe everything I am professionally to Candy; she taught me what to be, and what not to be.” After respective career opportunities presented themselves concurrently to Peter and his wife, they moved to Chicago, where Peter was a lighting design leader at an architectural/engineering firm before taking the bold step of opening his own lighting design firm, Hugh Lighting Design, LLC, eighteen years ago. What makes light magical to you? want to play up so we can layer accordingly. That’s an interesting question.

    Learning from Glas Vegas An AJ urban design charrette and Philips Lighting Livable Cities workshop, Glasgow 2013 32 Philips Livable Cities 34 Introduction 38 Participants 42 The charrette workshops 66 Philips Livable Cities lighting workshop 72 Peter McCaughey Livable Cities Philips Livable Cities enables professionals in urban development to discuss, explore and anticipate the future of European cities from the socio- cultural, outdoor environment and urban lighting perspectives. The programme has brought together more than 150 architects, urban planners and theoretical thinkers in totally different settings – from interviews in their offices in Turin, Hamburg, Helsinki, Glasgow, Wrocław and various locations in The Netherlands, to high-pressure and tight schedules of co-design workshops in Bratislava, Copenhagen, Turnhout, Dubrovnik, Wrocław and Glasgow. Philips Livable Cities included primary research and applicative workshops, ending with prototype design and the practical realisation of these designs in workshops. It found its purpose by enabling us to build a composite, coherent picture of the future of urban Europe as seen through the eyes of European ‘city makers’. Glasgow concluded the Livable Cities programme with a workshop on 1 October. The Old Fruitmarket in Glasgow, where 40 architects, landscape architects and urban planners gathered from The Netherlands, Poland, Serbia, England and Scotland, provided a unique setting. The participants worked on two assignments. The first assignment was co-ordinated by AJ deputy editor Rory Olcayto. The second was headed by sociologist Marco Bevolo and lighting designer Tapio Rosenius. Here the challenge was to envision, create and implement a lighting concept responding to a focused selection among the 16 urban future scenarios.
