Here are some assorted images 'hot off the camera' from Switch Night. If this page takes forever to load, that's because the pictures are mostly 640x480x24 bit -- i.e., they're naturally huge. You might want to get a cup of coffee while they load if you're using a slow modem. In an effort to save a little bandwidth, I've made them into jpegs and done some Photoshop work to clean them up some.

 

This first picture is of Emily, acting the part of Brad. The video camera I'm using has decent-but-not-great low light performance, so it's wonderful when actors stand right next to it and are doused in beautiful, not-too-intense but golden light. The out of focus daubs of color are lights and lens flares, which couldn't have been orchestrated better for an image of someone singing "There's a Light."

This is Tammie throwing the watercup with extreme attitude (it's barely visible as a blue blur above her head) as Emily and Joseph look on in horror. Joseph's expression is priceless.

Throne scene. Mandatory, of course. The hulking machismo that is Ian as Columbia, the relatively dainty Riff, and my scream queen Magenta make this a fearsome tableau indeed.

More pics to come when I can get back to this footage.
