Moody Lighting - Addams Family

This image comes from a production of “The Addams Family” musical. The lighting design here coincides with the set design and costuming to create the chilling mood of a graveyard in the first song. Low-intensity, blue light and even some spots of darkness surround the protagonists to show their environment during the nighttime. While the family is focused in a brighter light, I think some of the darker spots of the stage work well alongside the grey costumes and set, and the cyclorama which depicts a spooky purple/orange sky.

  1. I really like the lighting in this scene because it creates a fun and spooky mood that mirrors the essence of the Addams Family. I also really like the purple on the back wall, which sets the time of day at night along with the moon. I like the fog on the ground and how the light interacts with the fog. I think the fog and interacting light adds to the mood by setting the location and creating a ghostly and eerie mood.
