I am in Tulsa to direct the capture and IMAG of Rigoletto in Drillers Stadium Ballpark. For all those baseball fans, it's one of the LA Dodgers minor league clubs. Yes, we will shoot in the Diamond with 5 cameras. It will be a 90 minute version a Rigoletto (usually it's 2hr and 30 minutes including an intermission). It will be a taste of opera for the fans and first time fans who attend. The singers will be in the infield near each base which are 90 feet from each other. The orchestra will be at the backstop behind home plate and the chorus will be either in short left or short right field. Great to use baseball lingo.
My cameras will be high home looking at the grande wide and also doubling up to get the close ups. It has a 44x1 lens. Two other cameras will be on 6" risers to just behind home plate to pick up singles of the singers and head to toes. The other two cameras will cross shoot from the 1st and 3rd base side to compress duets and quartets. That's the plan today. Going out to the Ballpark for my first site survey this AM. We have been prepping this shoot over the phone during this pandemic.
