Spotlight on the Dark
Posted in architectural photography by Greg Benson
The Sitnik Theater in the David and Carol Lackland Center at Centenary College.
Theaters are spaces where we are often in the dark. Depicting a darkened theater with enough detail to see seats, ceilings, lighting, stage, curtains was a challenge. I employed a mix of controlling the lights within the theater, adding lights, and piecing together different exposures in Photoshop.
The 485 seat Sitnik Theater is the cornerstone of the Lackland Center at Centenary College in Hackettstown, NJ.

The morning of the shoot was rainy. Fortunately, the weather shifted, leading to an exterior shot with blue sky, picturesque clouds and dramatic light.

I was commissioned by the construction firm, E. Allen Reeves to document this building.
