On Saturday, (2nd of March, 2013) I went to the First day of my 4 week course. I arrived at 9 and was surprised to find all of the participants were at least 20 or above, making me the youngest by a long shot. The age difference did not make that much of a difference though. The course went on and I made some stellar notes ( but being the amazing organizer I am, I left them at the theater, Ill copy them into my next post), we learned about the different lights used in the theater as well as how to apply them to specific theater types. Jagriti is a half moon stage with seating in a 180 degrees of the stage, so the lighting is a bit difficult. I also had the chance to go through the catwalk above the stage, which is quite extensive.
When there was free time and when the discussion came up, I asked as many in detail questions as I could about how to apply the lighting to the stage at CIS (in order to prepare for our spring musical). The majority of them had good comments and suggestions that i think we will apply. ( I will discuss these in my next post about the play).
Overall I am very happy with the course, and am excited for next weeks addition.
Here are some pictures I took of the theater and different parts of Backstage.
