wrong to replicate what is seen here with the hazy moonlight seeping through trees?
Yes this can be directly replicated for the stage, but that should be only if the text or director calls for it because it gives so little visibility and even less emotion. I feel like this picture is very beautiful in the way how hazy the moon is which gives an eeriness that is fun and interesting to look at. I didn't get to see it on skin or at least didn't get a picture. I wonder what it does actually look like with having it directly replicated...I'd love to explore it. But I'm still going to wonder why we see night as Blue on stage.
I think its partly because it's a dark color, but also because it's a very theatrical color. Kids color night as "midnight blue." Blue has become a widely accepted night time color for audiences, and that is exactly who we're trying to reach with our story telling. Although I have definitely seen beautiful dark nights with textured tiny moons and more shadow than "blue." It reads very dark/scary/intense. Filtering a haze or fog through that would look awesome!
