David Powell – In-person at Puppetmongers’ studio – Two evening sessions June 20 and Jun 27, 5 to 7 p.m. for $100 (+ $80 materials per lamp).
Halogen lamps project crisp shadow images and add amazing cinematographic effects to shadow puppetry works. With these as your light source, you can zoom from longshot to close-up, layer multiple images, create negative or light images, travel through landscapes, and much-much more.
Here is a link to Shuttle Dreams, a halogen shadow show made with two musicians and Mark Keetch.
On June 20th we will experiment with the different types of halogen lamps, so that you gain an understanding of their capabilities, and choose which sort would best suit your needs and of you want one or two. From this we will know what components to buy for the building evening. On June 27th you will build your own lamp(s). Please note that if you request building two lamps, we will bill you the additional $80 materials cost.
