EXPERIMENTAL MEDIA
The Experimental Media Arts showcase will be held at the Cube Microplex in Bristol on Thursday 18th of May. Here are the two areas within the Cube that I am considering setting my instillation up in. THE MAIN STAGE The main stage is a good size that will create a feeling of depth and open space. I like the curtains at the back beside the screen. I could set two lights up off to the sides of the stage to shine some blue light over the curtains, slowly dimming to blackness during the run time of my film to create the appropriate ambience. I would also like to shine a light at the ceiling above that will also dim over time to further enhance the feeling of depth. My only worry about using this location is that I wish to use a smoke machine to create some density to the air and add a little touch of moisture to it. This could be a problem being so close to the cinema screen. SEATING AREA This seating area is much more smaller and compact that the main stage and has much more of a comfortable feel to it that could be counterproductive to the tension I wish to create with my instillation. The red colour of the back wall would mean that I would have a hard time lighting with blue gels unless I covered it somehow. The main element that I like about this area is the slopping roof that, if lit properly, could be manipulated to convey a sinking feeling. Given the choice though, I would rather prefer to use the stage. Comments are closed.
