Week 10 // Final Post // Alexis Morris


 This picture is from the very opening of my piece in this year's New Slate, "Shrieks of Outrage". This is honestly one of my favorite cues of the piece. I like how the dancers are almost more alluded to that actually revealed. I wanted the audience to hear the dancers before they actually get to see them, and I really liked Amelie's choice to give us just enough light to see there are people there but not to actually see them in any detail. I feel this opening was not only artistically effective, but aesthetically pleasing as well.

    Nice image and post. Your description of what you wanted to get from it and from what the lighting did are truly matched. So great to have you in class this quarter and to see your work!

Week 10 - Ashley

This picture is from my piece, Reverberant Skin, in New Slate. I love the way the colors in this piece ended up looking on stage. I gave the color palette of light blues, purples and greys to the costume designer and Hayden, my lighting designer ended up using those same colors throughout the piece. This shot captures the lavender color of the lighting highlighting the dancer's bodies and costumes. I think the side lighting allows for the audience to see the movement of the clothing which emphasizes the movement of the dancers.

Week 1/ Sabrina Huang/ ClubJete

  I took this picture on my phone last month for my first choreographers debut at ClubJete. This picture reflects my perspective of the club when I first walked in. I walked into the club feeling very excited, being a newly 21 year old as well this was my first "club" experience. The experience was even cooler for me while it was a space full of very talented dancers and choreographers. I took out my phone very quickly to take a picture of the cool lighting. The club looked really fascinating to me, I liked the different contrasts with the purple, pink and blue. As well as, the reflections from the disco balls and strips of led on the ceiling!

Week 2, Kaylee Kollins, Tokyo Nights

 For week 1, I have chosen a photo I took this summer, in the streets of Tokyo in the night time. I spend most of my summers here, so looking back at this photo gives me a sense of nostalgia, happiness, and warmth. My favorite part of this photo is that although my iPhone camera quality is not great, it captures the light rays of the street light going in many different directions. The light splitting off in different directions yet remaining symmetrical to me is an art within itself. Another thing that sticks out to me is how the vending machine light glows in this photo. There is nothing more comforting than walking the streets of Tokyo at night and having a vending machine light glare at you in the distance. To me, this photo exudes peace and serenity, as I feel very comfortable walking these streets at night in the town I grew up in, but I cannot say the same about walking the streets at night in America. Another highlight of light in this photo is the entryway to some people's...
