Design Lighting for a play


I decided to design a lighting scene from The Lion. Whenever Nala and Simba are reunited after they are all grown up from Simba running away from the kingdom. Whenever Nala and Simba are reunited they are close to each other telling each other that they miss each other. For the lighting behind Nala and Simba I decided to use a orange spotlight and a yellow spotlight to make the scene act like it’s the evening of the day. For my next lighting of this scene Tomon starts singing about How Nala and Simba are falling in love. Whenever Timone says “They’ll Fall in love and here’s the bottom line” I’ll have the lights turn to a red spotlight to make the scenery turn into a love, romantic scenery. Timon then keeps singing and says the “There’s magic everywhere” the lights will turn dim and white sparkled lights will start sparkling throughout the stage.

He then says “Disaster’s in the air” the lights will turn black and the white lights will come on again but now it will look like lightening is striking to make a disaster affect. Whenever Nala and Simba are playing around and flirting by the river the lights will turn into a light blue lighting to show a water scene affect. When Nala and Simba are playing around in the grass the spotlights will turn green to have to scene look like there in grass and in the forest. At the end of this scene whenever Nala and Simba are gazing into each other’s eyes the lights will turn Light blue and Purple to have the scene like the sky is turning into a night sky. Throughout the scene there will be a spotlight showing first to Timone and Pumbaa whenever they first start singing. whenever the orchestra starts playing the spotlight will start to follow Simba and Nala until the end of the scene when Timone and Pumbaa finish out the song.
