Light Design Workshop by Yael Crishna

  • October 22, Mon
    The Stein Auditorium, India Habitat centre

Entry by passes. Participants are required to have prior experience with theatre lighting. Write to habitatprogrammes @gmail.com detailing your prior experience with lights for registration.

This workshop will cover light plans and how they need to be adapted when the show travels and also issues faced when moving from one city to another. Another area covered will be the importance of show related paperwork and some possible ways of ensuring that the Lighting Designer's vision of the show remains unchanged despite the different style of theatre.
