Elation Platinum fixtures light new Off-Broadway production

Lighting Designer Susan Nicholson used Elation Professional’s Platinum Spot 35 Pro moving head luminaire for front lighting, backlighting and texturing on an Off-Broadway production of the new musical drama “Death for Five Voices”, staged March 24 to April 17, 2016 at the Sheen Center for Thought and Culture in New York City.

 

“Death for Five Voices” is a complex musical that changes locations on a static set. “The show does not call for spot lights,” Nicholson explains, “So moving lights were my answer as a way to be able to pop characters out. It gave me an opportunity to draw the audience’s attention to the important action on stage.”

 

Nicholson used the Platinum Spot 35 Pro as front light and highlights with fixtures positioned over the audience, splitting center, and another located upstage just off of center for backlighting. “I also used the movers as texture,” she says, “decorating the walls and the actors both from the front and back.”

 

“The color mixing was the most important feature,” Nicholson says. “I needed a good face light color when using them to spot the actors, but also needed vibrant colors for use during night time and heated scenes. The front of house fixtures were used in many white/pink and amber tones. The back light fixture was used in more deep and saturated tones.” Assisting Susan Nicholson on “Death for Five Voices” and also serving as Master Electrician on the show was Travis Seminara.
