Power

Unfortunately, as a lighting designer, you're likely to experience a power outage. And not just the literal kind.

It's not much, but you try to do what you can with the position you're in. We suggest that every time you flip a switch and bathe a set in brightness, you yell, "Let there be light!" and have it be so. It's not very powerful. But it'll feel pretty good.
