Prom 2017 - Pittsfield High School "A Night In Italy"

Pittsfield High School's "A Night In Italy" 2017 Prom was held in the Shire City Sactuary (the former Notre Dame Church) in Pittsfield, Massachusetts. 

Here is the view from the balcony, all of the lighting and decor is in place and this shot was taken as a "before" shot.

A view from the balcony of how the "sunset" portion of the event looked. Many wireless uplights were placed throughout the space and bistro string lighting was installed.

Here's a closer look at the outdoor cafe set up indoors as added seating. Here, I fitted each umbrella with a wireless pinspot that casts light down onto the table's surface and floral arrangements. Functional and cozy!

The original church pews created alcove seating along both walls. More wireless pinspots were used on the table decor there.

Another view of the alcove seating and the amber uplights and pinspots used there. Can you spot all that lighting equipment? No? Good, that's one of my goals.

Carefully placed uplights were used to cast two built-in alcoves aglow, highlighting client-provided statues and drapes. It's a good thing my lights are wireless because outlets in these areas were scarce.

Here is the room after "nightfall." Many of the uplights were wirelessly and smoothly changed to midnight blue, and I added star and moon projections to the massive cathedral ceiling. The high-definition moon was a carefully planned custom monorgam.

Another spectacular view from the balcony.
While testing the "nightfall" portion of the event, a warm ambience is maintained in the seating alcoves along the outer walls of this space by keeping the amber glow there.
Immerse yourself in what it was like to experience this event as a guest surrounded by dozens of client-provided trees. This view from the massive dancefloor draws your gaze upward to the nightsky and massive full moon.

The color-changing versatility of my wireless uplights is demonstrated here while I dialed in the final color palettes used.

It's showtime! Before launching the dance party indoors, I provided a second sound system outside for the grand entrance.
With the event now fully underway and a packed dance floor, the powerful capabilities of the uplights are put to work to generate a more "club-like" experience for this very appreciative crowd.

It's rare that I appear in our local newspaper without taking out a paid ad. Here I am installing the string lighting. That ladder is a lot higher than it looks!
