After seeing Tiger At The Gates here at CMU, I have newfound appreciation for the capabilities of projection design. Mapping projections onto a set to create texture or magical effects can do so much to enhance a set and story without spending ridiculous time and money for other special effects. The portability of this technology and ability to recreate the same effects in different spaces makes this such a valuable resource for tours, which I certainly appreciate as an audience member because I live pretty far from any major theaters and so the only tours we get tend to be fairly low budget and nothing like the professional versions. It makes me really upset that a lot of people in my area don't understand the possibilities for theatrical design because what the touring companies have brought to the community until recently wasn't reflective of the fantastic design happening in professional theaters. I am just waiting for the time when projection technology is inexpensive enough that it can be utilized by any theater with technicians who can work the software. Maybe its even at that point already, which would be very exciting.
