Stage lighting is the craft of lighting as it applies to the production of theatre, dance, opera and other performance arts. Several different types of stage lighting instruments are used in this discipline. In addition to basic lighting, modern stage lighting can also include special effects, such as lasers and fog machines. People who work on stage lighting are commonly referred to as lighting technicians.
The equipment used for stage lighting (e.g., cabling, dimmers, lighting instruments, controllers) are also used in other lighting applications, including corporate events, concerts, trade shows, broadcast television, film production, photographic studios, and other types of live events. The personnel needed to install, operate, and control the equipment also cross over into these different areas of "stage lighting" applications.
The earliest known form of stage lighting was during the early Grecian (and later the Roman) theatres. They would build their theatres facing east to west so that in the afternoon they could perform plays and have the natural sunlight hit the actors, but not those seated in the orchestra. Natural light continued to be utilized when playhouses were built with a large circular opening at the top of the theatre. Early Modern English theatres were roofless, allowing natural light to be utilized for lighting the stage. As theatres moved indoors, artificial lighting became a necessity and it was developed as theatres and technology became more advanced. At an unknown date, candlelight was introduced which brought more developments to theatrical lighting across Europe.

No nonsense stage lighting simplicity is the key when performing on small stages and venues. In this video I demonstrate relatively cheap and easy stage lighting. When cost, easy of setup and space saving is important RGB LED lighting is hard to beat. These PAR 64 LED Cans are great but they have a very narrow spot which doesn't work well in small venues. Adding a diffuser to the front of them using a opaque plastic bag spreads the light making them more usable for small gigs. Also in this video I describe and demonstrate different lighting locations they may be desirable on stage. Hope you find this video helpful All the best. Paul

Nope... fish eye lens on the camera! -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- This is my full lighting show with 90 lighting fixtures all controlled by a single Windows XP based PC using the DMX Control software by Stefan Krupop.

If you are in a band, a DJ, or organising your own indoor or outdoor music festival in the UK, then this lighting show is FOR HIRE! Best suited for audience sizes from 300 to 2000 people. 3000 at a push. It usually takes a day to set ...
