The gobo prices for the prismatics and the steel gobo were very expensive so I thought that I could try and make my own church window so I decided to make a proto type to test the idea.

GOBOs : Stained Glass Window (Job Roles: Ideas into Action)
Rosco Catalogue for Prismatics used for coloured effects in gobos.
= £56.09
These are the prices for the prismatics and steel gobos via the website Stage Electrics .
We could use these however they are expensive so it might be better to make our own stained glass window and shine a light through it, this would be done by cutting the shapes of the window in to a large card or making a wooden frame and then using coloured film cellophane which would be much cheaper. Also this idea may not even be possible as we need an M size gobo and Prismatic and the site only does A and B sizes for the Prismatics.

Footloose Lighting Design: LX Free Java (Job Roles: Ideas into Action)
Following my meeting
with the shows director I then had a list of what I had to include in the shows
lighting. I there for created a digital lighting design. I included a simple
general cover to with a straw gell to give a warm feel to the more emotional scenes
as there are many in this show. I also included a blue back light to give depth
to the space. Also the main themes the director wanted was red, white and blue
so I included a red white and blue side light on the floor and in the rig. I
also added in some specials for the gobo effects. I added 3 spot lights to
highlight specific solo singers and to add more depth to the general cover. Finally
for the glitter ball that is needed for the dance and the end of the show I
added in 3 pin spots.
For the audience
light I was considering adding in three more red white and blue lights to the
seating area however I thought that this may be 'too much' so I decided to add
two strings of festoons across the back of the hall and the back of the audience,
I wanted to create the effect that the audience were part of the entertainment
and feel more enraptured in the experience.
