Lighting Design Concept and Development of Spring Awakening by Frank Wedekind Lighting Design Concept and Development of Spring Awakening By Frank Wedekind A Thesis Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Fine Arts in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Alex Kyle-DiPietropaolo Graduate Program in Theatre The Ohio State University 2011 Thesis Committee: Professor Mary Tarantino, Advisor Assistant Professor Jimmy Bohr Assistant Professor Janet Parrott Copyright by Alex Kyle-DiPietropaolo 2011 Abstract This thesis documents the design process for the production Spring Awakening by Frank Wedekind, as translated by Jonathan Franzen. The show was produced in The Ohio State University‟s Thurber Theatre from February 24th through March 13th, 2011. The design concepts for the production were developed as informed by an adolescent‟s perspective on the world, and the representation of that viewpoint through lighting design. Modern theatre techniques were employed to address issues raised in the play. One such modern technique was the use of live video to reinforce the emotional impact in key scenes, which required researching lighting design for the medium of film, and how to adapt it to the stage. Working within these design ideas, color and the positions of instruments were used to develop a hyper-reality where the adolescents‟ emotions and feelings are echoed in the world around them. ii Dedication This document is dedicated to those people who never let me get away with mediocrity. iii Acknowledgments First, I would like to acknowledge my parents. They accepted my floating through reality after reality, and only momentarily balked at my choice to make a career in theatre. My sister and brother always accepted that choice in stride, but otherwise make sure that I never take myself too seriously. Without my family, I would have never been able to complete this thesis, or for that matter been in a position to write a thesis at all. For them, I am thankful every day. I acknowledge and am grateful for the help and support of all my friends over the years, far too many to mention. They have seen through my boisterous façade to find out who I am. To all of my teachers who allowed me to learn with them, and helped me see the world from their perspective, I thank you. Specifically, I would like to thank Nick Vassolo, who gave me the gift of recognizing my love of history, and both taught me and helped me understand that even though grades may only matter to academics: they are still important. Thanks to Benny Gomes, who saw talent in me and showed me how to transform the visions in my head to reality. Also thanks to Janet Parrott, who may not have been my teacher directly, but seemed to always to have time to talk and toss around ideas. Finally, I thank Mary Tarantino, who taught me a language to express my ideas, and also that a design doesn‟t exist without a well thought-out plan to execute. iv Finally, I would like to thank the cast, crew, and design team of Spring Awakening for putting on a wonderful production; without that, this thesis would not have been possible. Specifically, I thank Jimmy Bohr, for without his vision and conviction I would never have been able to complete the design. v Vita 2004 to 2008 ..........................BFA Theatrical Design, Northern Illinois University 2008 to Present .......................Graduate Teaching Assistant, The Ohio State University Department of Theatre 2009........................................Lighting Design, Just Like Us, The Ohio State University 2009........................................Lighting Design, The Sand Box, The Ohio State University 2009........................................Lighting Design, Summer and Smoke, The Ohio State University 2010........................................Lighting Design, Men in White, The Ohio State University 2010........................................Completed Illuminating Engineering Society (IES) Fundamentals of Lighting 2010........................................Lighting Design, Long Christmas Ride Home, The Ohio State University 2010........................................Internship with The Lighting Design Group in New York 2010........................................Lighting Design, King of Bohemia, Main Stage New York 2010........................................Lighting Design, Hereafter, Stage IV Theatre New York 2010........................................Co-Lighting Design, On the Shore of the Wide World, The Ohio State University vi 2010........................................Lighting Design, Spring Awakening, The Ohio State University Fields of Study Major Field: Theatre Other Studies: Art History, Lighting Design and Technology, International Theatre, Dance Lighting vii Table of Contents Abstract ............................................................................................................................... ii Dedication .......................................................................................................................... iii Acknowledgments.............................................................................................................. iv Vita ..................................................................................................................................... vi Table of Contents ............................................................................................................. viii List of Tables ...................................................................................................................... x List of Figures .................................................................................................................... xi Chapter 1: The Producing Situation ................................................................................... 1 Chapter 2: Director‟s Concept and Design Approach ........................................................ 7 Chapter 3: Script Analysis ................................................................................................ 19 Chapter 4: The Production Process ................................................................................... 34 Chapter 5: Evaluation of the Design ................................................................................. 50 References ......................................................................................................................... 58 Appendix A: Director‟s Concept ...................................................................................... 60 Appendix B: Lighting Design Research ........................................................................... 64 Initial Lighting Design Research................................................................................... 65 viii Maya Pre-Visualization Pictures ................................................................................... 88 Appendix C: Lighting Design Paper Work ....................................................................... 96 Spring Awakening Tech Request .................................................................................. 97 Spring Awakening Shop Order ..................................................................................... 98 Spring Awakening Final Budget ................................................................................. 109 Spring Awakening Channel Hook Up Spring Awakening Instrument Schedule Spring Awakening Cue Orchestration ..................................................................................... 110 Spring Awakening Magic Sheet .................................................................................. 142 Spring Awakening Front of House Drafting ................................................................ 143 Spring Awakening On Stage Drafting ......................................................................... 144 Appendix D: Production Photographs ............................................................................ 147 ix List of Tables Table 1.

  • John's List of Tech Theater Terms
    Department of THEATER & DANCE Office of the TECHNICAL DIRECTOR Tech Theater Terms file last updated: 7.29.2010 (JDE) All information contained in this document is original material copyright © 2005 by John D. Ervin and is intended for the use of my students. Please contact me at [email protected] for permission to use this material in any other way. This is a work-in-progress and will be occasionally appended. Apron – The portion of the stage or playing space that is downstage of the proscenium arch. In traditional proscenium-style theaters, acting on the apron was a big “no-no” because it violated the stage picture being created by the proscenium arch. Thus many older theaters have very shallow aprons. Nowadays though, Directors can’t get enough of having their actors as close to the audience as possible; despite how uncomfortable it makes some audience members. This is all done under the umbrella of ‘intimacy’ and we all know how much artists love that stuff. Sometimes the apron is referred to as the “Forestage”. (See Figure 1 and 2) Arbor – Part of a fly system. A device mounted in one of the wings, which is connected to the lift lines at the opposite end from the batten. Stage weights are stacked on the arbor to balance the load suspended from the batten. In the case of a counterweight fly system, a rope hand line is connected to the top of the arbor, passes sequentially through the head block and tension block, and is terminated to the bottom of the arbor, forming a loop.

It has been accepted for inclusion in Undergraduate Honors Theses by an authorized administrator of W&M ScholarWorks. For more information, please contact [email protected]. 1 The apocalypse has been written about as many times as it hasn’t taken place, and imagined ever since creation mythologies logically mandated destructive counterparts. Interest in the apocalypse never seems to fade, but what does change is what form that apocalypse is thought to take, and the ever-keen question of what comes after. The most classic Western version of the apocalypse, the millennial Judgement Day based on Revelation – an absolute event encompassing all of humankind – has given way in recent decades to speculation about political dystopias following catastrophic war or ecological disaster, and how the remnants of mankind claw tooth-and-nail for survival in the aftermath. Desolate landscapes populated by cannibals or supernatural creatures produce the awe that sublime imagery, like in the paintings of John Martin, once inspired. The Byronic hero reincarnates in an extreme version as the apocalyptic wanderer trapped in and traversing a ruined world, searching for some solace in the dust.

  • Delamping in Most of Our Classroom Light Fixtures, There Are One to Four Individual Fluorescent Lamps
    Delamping In most of our classroom light fixtures, there are one to four individual fluorescent lamps. Depending on the types of fixtures, you can remove one of the lamps while keeping the others in. Which one to take out simply depends on which appears best to you. On the newer, skinnier (T-8) lamps, the manufacturer recommends that no more than one lamp be removed from the fixture. Delamping is a simple way to reduce foot-candles of light intensity in an area. In the lighting industry, foot-candles are a common unit of measurement used to calculate adequate lighting levels of workspaces in buildings or outdoor spaces. Of course, you can also remove all the lamps in a fixture if the light is not needed at all. Some overhead light fixtures are also emergency lights that will stay on when the building loses power. The emergency light fixtures should not be deplamped. Delamping should done by qualified staff only. Keep in mind these rules for delamping: Do not compromise health, safety, or security. Do not take lamps out of new fixtures that are still covered under warranty. Do consider the needs of the building occupants. With T-8 systems, do not remove more than one lamp per fixture. Maintain recommended minimum light levels. Refer to the chart on the next page. Where would you delamp a light fixture? Delamping is possible anywhere there is a fluorescent light fixture above an area that is not being used for active reading and writing or in areas where there is more light than needed.
