LIGHTING
OBJECTIVES:
-
for the
richness of the colors in the lighting to match the richness of the orchestration
-
to have
an air of nostalgia, to give a sense of period (be influenced by the artwork
of Hopper, Stella, and Rockwell)
-
to punctuate
the purity and spirituality of Maria (use of a golden tonality to give
a candlelight (votive) feel)
-
to account
for time of day
-
to convey
a hot and oppressive city through the use of rich color and jagged
templates
-
to maintain
a heightened atmosphere, working in the style of musical theatre (accomplished
through the use of symbol color, keeping the Shark numbers and neighborhood
hot and the Jets numbers and neighborhood cool)
