Blog #3: Outside The Green Room under the Lights

In the daytime, The Green Room is an active environment with students, professors, and parents bustling in and out. But once the evening time hits and most of the UCI population has gone home, the lights outside The Green Room turn on and create a very ambient, cozy, and dimly lit environment that is perfect for that evening get work done type of mentality while waiting for rehearsals or the next engagement. I took this video and added a relaxing song to it and got a lot of feedback asking what new, hip, coffee shop I was studying in and received surprised feedback when I revealed that I was just studying at good ol' Green Room right on campus. The way that the lights are strung across the top with just bright enough lighting that you can read but not too bright that you're distracted by other things going on in the environment really transforms the area into an inviting space. These types of lights give me a similar feeling as when Christmas lights are hung up in the living room and create a whole new environment just in the comfort of your home.
