Stage lighting is lighting that is needed to light up a stage, and it’s a powerful tool for all events.
It’s a way to increase attention at your event and used to highlight people, stage backdrops and props, and more!
Taking a deeper dive, we find that we can direct someone's focus with light drawing their eyes around the stage.
Lighting can communicate emotion using color, texture and different amounts of light.
An experienced lighting designer can transform a simple event into an exciting experience. From conferences to concerts, or sales meetings to church services, stage lighting can be used for any type of event.
Stage lighting provides four main functions at events: Visibility, Motivation, Composition, and Mood.
Staging lighting provides visibility and direction for where the audience should direct their attention.
For most events, lighting designers strive to make the light look natural for the environment and setting.
For events like plays, the lighting director will work closely with the scene designer to make sure the background and important props or people are visible to the audience.
Lighting has the ability to change the mood of a crowd, whether it’s slow and mellow or colorful and upbeat.
Stage Lighting PositionsMost stage lighting designers focus on five main positions of stage lighting.
– These lights are the primary source of lighting for the event.
– Primarily used to highlight the sides of the performer’s body.
– These shine the light on the top of the performer’s head, neck and shoulders so you can see their facial expressions.
– These lights create depth and separate the performer with the background.
– This lighting is used to wash an area of the stage with soft or harsh light.
Automated lighting can be a flexible and economical alternative to stationary lighting. It’s perfect for events in a theater, nightclub, concert hall or church.
Unlike automated lighting, conventional lighting fixtures provide only one function, and that's illumination. We recommend conventional lighting for conferences, company events or large seminars where there’s only one person speaking at a time.
LED lighting is the most energy-efficient way of lighting an event. On-stage performers appreciate the comfort of LEDs, as they emit very little heat and they rarely need replacing.
