Back in the studio - with MORE flashlights.... I wanted to try different set ups with a better camera to see how effective different angles, quantities, qualities of movement, levels (etc. etc.) worked in the theater.
One particular set up that I find particularly interesting and aesthetically pleasing is creating a sort of "garden" with the flashlights. Having the lights sit up with the beams towards the ceiling and randomly placed and grouped around the stage is interesting, but limits visibility to close proximity from the knees up. I experimented with placing some lights on their sides to give more visibility to lower extremities with pretty good success. Below is a video of some of the things we tried...
1) "Garden" - with single lights and grouped lights, random movement and unison movement
2) Close Cluster - very specific and concentrated visibility
3) Row of lights from Stage Left - laying on side
4) Circle of lights, beams up - dancing from inside and outside
