Exploring stage lighting

To make perfect and accurate lighting on the stage, it is necessary to cooperate with many aspects. In this article, we will explore how to provide lighting for the show, so that we can have a deeper understanding of the stage lighting technology.

Purpose of performance lighting

The primary purpose of the lighting is to let the audience clearly see the scenery on the stage. As for the method of lighting, it will affect the audience's visual perception of the stage setting and the impression of the whole performance. When the light can be clearly projected, the lighting designer is to enhance the dramatic effect of the whole performance, and the four basic functions of the stage lighting are: visibility, lighting motivation, lighting integration and creating an atmosphere.

Visibility

There is no need to say more about the ability to provide visibility. What is particularly pointed out here is that this feature also means not exposing things that are not suitable for viewing on the stage to the audience.

2. Lighting motivation

Making the lighting look natural is one of the work of the lighting designer, which depends on the interaction of the lighting effect and the stage setting. For example, when imitating the night effect in reality, the stage lighting should be reflected from the tree-shaped luminaire in the set, or it can be projected through the set table lamp or other light source. Even if the set is not true at all, this special lighting motivation should be maintained. In such a performance, the lighting must be consistent with the content of the performance, in line with the needs of the plot.

3. Light fusion

The lighting function is also part of the stage set design. Lighting integration is a precaution for lighting designers to improve the authenticity of the set, and this set is also provided by the director during the stage design scene. In other words, when the story is needed, the actors on the stage are illuminated with appropriate proportions of light, accurate projection orientation and lighting time.

4. Create an atmosphere

Strengthening the atmosphere of creation, although it can be seen as a function of independence, is also part of the other three functions. The combination of lighting, lighting motivation, and the amount and visibility of the lights all contribute to the overall atmosphere of the stage performance.

To reflect the four functions of stage lighting, designers must also pay attention to four things from lighting control: brightness, luminaire distribution, color and beam movement.

(1) Brightness refers to the brightness of the luminaire.

(2) Distribution of lamps This includes not only the distribution of the lights covering the stage, but also the direction of the beam reaching the stage.

(3) The color of the beam can be easily changed by placing colored colored paper in the beam, but the effective use of color is one of the most challenging aspects of stage lighting.

(4) Beam movement This movement includes not only the movement of the beam but also the transformation of the other three functions (brightness, luminaire distribution and color).

There are several ways to stage lighting, but all of these methods are based on traditional lighting rules.

First, there must be enough fixtures to represent the colors, patterns, and other details required for the show; the fixtures must be able to show the performance characters or props on the stage when needed; the main characters must be legible and slightly brighter than the background some.
