Clovni is video and lighting design, directed by Alexandru Ivanoiu. The description Tony publishes is the show's own premise: "Clowns Clowns Clowns" starts from three months in hospitals in therapeutic clowning and brings on stage a world where failure wears the smallest possible mask. That research belongs to the production's story as printed. This page does not reassign those hospital months to the designer's biography, and it does not add scenes the paragraph does not contain.

Video plus lighting, without laser, means the mask and the failure have to be readable in picture and in illumination together. A tiny mask is a scale problem for a camera feed and for a spotlight equally. The archive does not say whether the video is live, recorded, or both. Sirene says "live visuals" and Clovni does not. The honest difference stops there. What Clovni does specify is the emotional size: failure, made small enough to wear. Lighting on Efectul is surgical for psychological tension. Lighting here has to share the stage with an image of clowning that came out of hospitals. Those are not the same plot even though both pages sit on the technical-director list as lighting credits.

Creditul pentru video și lighting design este pe același rând, regia Alexandru Ivanoiu. Premisa publicată este a spectacolului: luni în spitale, clown terapeutic, un eșec cu masca cea mai mică. Nu transformăm premisa în biografia designerului. Paginile de actor și de director tehnic rămân separate tocmai ca să nu se amestece rolurile.

Stills are in the sheet, more than one, which is why the lightbox on the homepage and the figures here carry alt text with the title and the credit. Watch the images before assuming a red-nose cartoon. The text promises the smallest mask, not a circus finale. If the next show needs that scale of feeling, name Clovni. If it needs a beam, name a different credit.

Clovni is published as Video · Lighting Design. "Clowns Clowns Clowns" starts from three months spent in hospitals in therapeutic clowning interventions and brings to the stage a world where failure puts on the smallest possible mask.

Seen beside the rest of the archive, Clovni sits next to Sirene pe Dâmbovița (Video Design), Fire de lumina (Video · Laser Design), Cosmic Latte (Laser · Lighting · Video Design). The point of keeping them on separate URLs is that a search for the piece, and a search for the job, land on a page that names Tony Macpela and the actual credit — Video · Lighting Design — rather than on a single scrolling file the crawler never finished reading.

Hiring the Video · Lighting Design credit on Clovni means hiring Tony Macpela in Bucharest, an actor who also designs laser, video, and interactive systems — not a CNC cutting shop, and not an anonymous rental house. The director named on the credit is Dir. Alexandru Ivanoiu. The published description is the brief he is willing to print. Write to maccpela@gmail.com or call +40 720 906 907 and name the credit you need, so the acting conversation and the design conversation stay distinct.
