Howdy!
So for my final blog post I wanted to share this sunset I took a picture of recently while I was in Long Beach, walking my puppy. My obsession is saturated colors from sunsets or just saturated colors generally speaking but sunsets are a perfect example of what I mean. Seeing the colors from a sunset always draws my attention. Whenever I'm in doubt while designing anything when it comes to colors, I tend to go with a color palette that's similar to a sunset because it's the first thing that comes to mind (there's also the occasional purple). I once designed a scene in a play with this color palette in mind and I got a lot of positive feedback from the scenic designer of the play. I'm just obsessed with the way it looks and it brings me so much joy, I love to use saturated colors any chance I get. Although I'm trying not to overuse it in lighting design as I'm starting to notice how too much saturation can hurt the overall look and theme the director is going for. Interning for Christmas Carol lately and just observing how each designer approaches a lighting scenario has really widened my perspective on how much is too much and how minimal is too minimal.
This class has drastically helped me on how I view lighting better than I did at community college and I've been inspired to continue working on lighting in the future. Thank you for everything!
