on lighting designers
so I was thinking...
good Lighting designers are kind of like the actors you never see on stage. you could do a show without a set. you could do a show without costumes. but if you do a show without light...
light motivates, sets the tone and the mood and controls the focus.
and much like a performance from an actor, the light on stage will never be the same twice. and once its done. it could never be recreated exactly the same.

loosing what is most important
so its the end of the semester. yes I know. and everyone is very stressed out trying to fnish off everything that needs to be turned in and whatnot.
I am no exception to that.
Also I would like to point out that yes I have learned quite a bit since I came to this school 3 years ago.
Moving lights, The Ion, vectorworks, Isadora, Hog Vision.
these are all things I have learnt about and my skills have increased. but along the way my passion was lost.
I don't know why. perhaps it was the unreasonably long hours. the lack of sleep, working with dictator directors. or perhaps it was being forced on to three shows a semester while still being expected to complete my assignments on time. It has reached a point were I have no desire to set foot in a theatre. once i get my paper, this degree is going to be as terminal as it suggests. what i used to love has been striped from me, the reason I gave up my life back in montreal, and moved across the country is no longer valid. Even now after the fun that was slotin the small ember that was kindled was crushed when i was forced on to three shows next semester.
my spirit is crushed
my passion is dead
and I know i am not the only one who feels that way right now
I have tried to make it better, I have tried to find it again, but i fear it is lost forever.

video instalation
Prepping for this final video project.
I am very pleased with the way it has turned out, but it seems that the triggers I have set up arent always working
the Idea behind it is to be affected by the people around the installation.
IE. when it is loud lots of stuff happens on the tvs
when it is quiet it goes to a test pattern.
also Every 20 mins it will go to a commercial break
Its mostly working.
this is the last music video that will be in the project.
