fredomatic Posted March 14, 2003 Report Share Posted March 14, 2003 Frederick Wenzlaff has recently been awarded the 2002 Los Angeles Drama Critics Circle Award for the lighting design of the production La Gioconda. A Zero 88 Illusion 120 console was used for design and playback of the rapid procession of highly stylized scenes and changes. "The console's smaller size made it a better fit for our theater without sacraficing performance". "Ultimately I chose the Illusion 120 console for it's many features, ease of programing, and purchase price." La Gioconda is essentialy a silent film for the stage with many different scene locals and highly choreographed movements. The lighting plays an intrical roll in directing the eye of the audience, facilitating smooth transitions and creating visual excitement. The 250 cues create for La Gioconda are played back in timed sequence with a digital audio track and video projections. La Gioconda is an original production created by The Collective Theater Company in wich Frederick is a founding member. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
