One suggestion... if the director wants , say a specific moment, let
them start their scene a few lines or so before that moment
he wants to capture is due to happen...
Good thing about digital you can chimp and if it doesnt look good, do it
again...
a curtain call shot will be the one piece of cake.. and one usually has
to do one of those.... but you might suggest another arrangement
I agree with Rick about the lighting problems ... again, shooting raw
and getting to chimp on site will make it lots less painful.

Hi Everyone:
I've been asked to photograph scenes from the play "My Sister Eileen"
which will open tomorrow night at a university near by. The shoot
will take place after a Friday night performance, and the producer
said normally the shoot is about an hour long. The cast is small
(9), so I think I've a wide enough lens for a cast group shot. I've
requested a comp ticket, so I can see the show before the shoot, and
they've kindly agreed.
I'll be looking for good dramatic scenes, of course, and I've been
told that there's nothing exotic about the lighting direction for
this play--just standard stage lighting. Has anyone had experience
doing theater shoots? Any tips or suggestions you'd be willing to share?
Thanks in advance.
Cheers, Christine
Actually what you will be looking for is good comedic scenes :-)
Drama, it ain't.
My Sister Eileen is about little gals from Ohio moving to NY to what
was is now the "West" Village it was turned into a musical both on
Broadway and in film... (Comdon and Greene)
I grew up with that play...
Here is a nice read about the musical and the play to give you an idea.
Wonder if they have "modernized" it...
And yes, I've done theater shoots -- I imagine with this play the
lighting will be pretty steady and clean...
Bring yr tripod :-)
