Based on the popularity of Live Design's 31 Days Of Plots in December each year, we have decided to present Plot Of The Week, with a light plot (or plots) per week until December 2023, when the next 31 Days Of Plots begins.
This week, Bob Dickinson and Noah Mitz of Full Flood share their plots and gear list for the 95th Oscars—Academy Awards ceremony—that was broadcast live from The Dolby Theatre in Hollywood on Sunday, March 12, 2023. Stay tuned to Live Design for a Q&A with the lighting designers about this challenging awards show...
