Party Lighting and Color

Last week I went to a birthday celebration and was able to observe how they used color in the lighting to create a certain environment. For the majority of the night, the lights were  a deep pink hue. The party's theme was "A Night in Paris", so this lighting helped bring out the romanticized Paris ambiance. 

Later on, the emcee started to shift the mood to get people out to the dance floor. At this point, the lighting was filtering through different colors as the volume of the music increased. There were tent-like figures that had lights inside of them which served to add variety to the lighting scheme. The changing colors gave more energy to the room and complemented the upbeat, remixed pop music playing.
