Boeing Boeing 101

At the beginning of the quarter I finished up my last two units of Drama 101 by helping out with E Hang. In this time I was able to see, start to finish, the complications that come with being a lighting designer. Ebony was able to deal with these complications and work around them and with them. I realized that some times you are going to have to deal with creative differences with people that you may be working with for the sake of the success of the performance and show as a whole. While creative differences can be troublesome and aggravating they are much easier to deal with than technical issues, such as the dimmers of the Little Theatre burning out shutting down at random intervals throughout the show. While al of these complications arose Ebony did an absolutely amazing job overall and was able to work with the issues she was presented and the final product that presented itself onstage, while it may not have been her exact creative design from start to finish, it was wonderful and the show would not have been what it was without her exceptional input and contribution.
