Hello everybody
I have a question about lighting that I am havign a really hard time finding the solution to. If you have any idea how to do this or where I could find out how to do it that would be so great!
I need to find out how to have two boxes onstage be one color the entire play until the very end when we will use a lighting/painting effect to make them really stand out and change colors but we dont want to see this change until the very end. The director said that if they glowed it would be cool but it doesnt neccessarily have to be a glow effect. ANy suggestions would be great THANKS SO MUCH

Hi There.

Just an idea, but you may wish to paint your box in Nocturn UV Paint and then at the end, when you want your colour change, hit it with a blacklight source and a new colour will come up.

I havent explained that very well so email me if you want more info but thought it might be the start of a realistic idea.

Cheers,
