This article is about the Aisan lantern display at the Pittsburgh zoo. Majoring specifically in theater design, I often forget that the skills I’m learning can be applied to different areas than just in the theater. Not only can I work in the theater working on designs for performances, but I can also use these skills for different events and projects in the world. Like in this instance, I can use the lighting design skills I’ll learn for cultural events that are put on in the city, or I can use them to light luaus at home, or things like movies and television, or amusement parks and concerts, or even different corporate programs and events. Hearing about the different things people do with their design & production degrees has helped me to think outside the box in terms of what types of things I’ll be able to accomplish with this interest.
