Answer to Question 1

ANSWER:How
did the type of theatrical space used for the production affect the use of lighting and
sound?
What overall approach governed the lighting and sound? Did they suggest recognizable
sources? Were they used to suggest a specific time of day, period, or place? If so, how?
With what effect? Were the lighting and sound dictated by stylistic or interpretational
considerations? If so, what were the results?
How did lighting and sound affect or help to create mood and atmosphere? Did the mood
and atmosphere change? If so, how? With what results?
How effectively did the lighting designer use the controllable qualities of light? How did
the light's color and intensity affect your perception of costumes and scenery? How did
the distribution of light on stage affect your focus and attention? Did the designer use
direction to emphasize certain areas and features or to de-emphasize others? With what
effect?
Was sound and lighting used to underscore or reinforce the development of the dramatic
action or in some way clarify the production concept or its interpretive focus? If so, how?
With what results?
Were there any unusual lighting or sound effects? If so, which and with what results? Did
these call undue attention to themselves at any point? If so, how?
How did the lighting enhance or fail to enhance the acting, scenery, costumes, and
makeup? Was it unified with all the other elements?
How did the sound enhance or fail to enhance the acting, lighting, and scenery?



Answer to Question 2

ANSWER:Sound
designers usually begin their process by closely examining the play for opportunities
to use sound effectively.
Most opportunities to use sound are not obvious and demand the careful consideration of
the designer in consultation with the director.
Most sound designers use their study of the play and their imaginations to develop a sound
score.
The sound score provides the function for each intended sound cue.
It also provides when the cue should be heard.
The sound score provides the cue's duration.
It also provides she origin of the sound and what will need to be recorded or used to
make the sound.
