Day 2 Sf Opera's Marriage of Figaro Simulcast at AT&T Park in SF, July 3

Today I reviewed lighting notes for Figaro with our Lighting designer, Gary Marder and Jess (AD) and Jessica our Executive Producer.  Taking a stage lighting design and transferring for video is sometimes a little tricky.  We want to keep the mood right, so we don't want to add to much light but just enough so we can tell the story and bright enough so the cameras can see what is going on.  Gary and his crew will work on these notes as we build up "our look" for July 3.

At the same time we look at wigs, costumes, props and sets.  These areas /departments are also working to make sure everything is looking good for the simulcast.

I included a couple of videos as background  for the simulcast.  The first one is a 2009 video hosted by Drew Landmesser who was the Director of Production at SF Opera.  He talks about how our HD suite works during a Simulcast. The second one are highlights of this year's Marriage of Figaro.  Enjoy.
