Lady GaGa Lighting

I recently attended the Lady GaGa concert, and was immediately captivated by the brilliant use of lighting. This picture was taken in her opening act as she stood behind a screen of green lights that formed a grid. I feel like I share very similar views with Lady GaGa, in that I am very much into futuristic lighting. I thought that her recent tour was very avante garde in terms of lighting. Even without the music, watching the lights that she uses in the show speaks so much.

I am definitely gaining a deeper appreciation of lighting already because I never realized how much power and attention it can gain from an audience perspective.

In addition to the use of her stage lighting, her outfit is actually lit up in sort of a Christmas lighting. You can tell from this image from where she is standing, that she clearly thought out her great use of lighting for both the stage and her costume. This is another example of why I think her forward way of thinking is so amazing. I have never seen a costume light up like that, and it definitely made me appreciate such great use of that. The rest of her show displayed a wide spectrum of such futuristic thinking that I was in such awe. This was a great show both in terms of music and lighting, and I would say both are almost equally powerful in the way that she used them. I would like to take inspirations from this concert and all this artificial lighting for my future work from now on. I feel very inspired looking at this image every time I glance at it.

Happy Sunday,
