I was the Associate Lighting Designer on this project. At Wagner, the Associate Lighting Designer is assigned a few scenes to light solo, which are the only scenes I have featured in the photos below.
For CITY OF ANGELS, I was assigned all Angel City Four (AC4) scenes and all scenes that led up to AC4 scenes (Top of Act 1: Prologue. Scene into "Look Out for Yourself" and "Look Out for Yourself," "Everybody's Gotta Be Somewhere," and "Stay With Me."
CITY OF ANGELS is an interesting show for a designer, as the show goes back and forth between 2 worlds: the movie world and the real world. The movie world is film noir black and white, and the real world is in color.
Lighting the AC4 was interesting, as they jumped between these 2 worlds constantly. To differentiate them, the colors used for each scene did reflect the world that the scene was taking place inside of in tone, but they existed in a more LED rather than a conventional setting.
In the movie world, you could not play with color in order to convey mood or setting. So, directionality and intensity were essential to the storytelling.
