Working on Allo Allo

Working on 'Allo Allo' as a Lighting apprentice involved the tasks of setting the lights up, making sure the gels were fitted correctly, installation of minor lighting and making sure they worked via the light board and that all the lights were patched up properly. i found it quite challenging in some aspects but their was a helping hand all along the way.their was seven areas of lighting that were needed;- the main cafe, outside of the cafe, the bedroom/pantry area, the cinema, the kitchen, the stairway, and the Generals office. the challenge with this was that some areas need light to flood through into other areas, such as the kitchen lights, and the outside lights.  Others however needed to be restricted and this was achieved through the use of barn doors. The large majority of the lights used were Minuets. Below are some photo's of the show during its performance as examples of the lighting. I also helped out with things like painting etc. I am currently working on the next show called 'Death Trap' and will be working on 'On the Tin' afterwards; which i was offered the position of Set Director, but declined due to University Deadlines for the current module and feel it will be a lot to juggle.
