LIGHTING ANALYSIS

Designing the lighting for the performance of colours was something I’ve never had experience in doing, to choose the lighting to go with each section i researched various dance performances on line which gave me an insight into what could look effect within the performance, i also researched the lighting by taking advice from the lighting technician Richard my work colleague at the Sage Gateshead,where i was given a demonstration of various lighting displays, which helped support my decision making, my aim is to use minimal subtle light changes with the  lighting used to heighten the bodies of the dancers movements,so the audience's focus throughout the performance is not swayed from the dance.
