Week 4/Post #2

Our very own Contemporary Arts Center!

The lighting in this picture bothers me. It is in the new building in the Claire Trevor School of the Arts between the theater enterance and the gallery entrance when you first walk into the building. This lighting would be a nice accent except for the lights that are not focused properly seen towards right center. The rest are almost in a nice, pleasing line, and then these two or three are askew and it really, really makes me unhappy. Perhaps this is because I have done lighting before, or perhaps it’s the lights themselves that are making me feel this way. I feel as though if they fixed these two lights to line up with the others, that the feeling would be one much more of warmth and pleasantness and unity. The softness of the beams create a safe feeling that can be better utilized if all the other beams were focused the same. As it is, I feel as though whoever was in charge of lighting really didn’t care about this project.
