Lighting Lesson Monday!

Here are a couple great tips to think about when you’re setting up your first lighting rig:

Don’t feel like you have to buy too many lights. You want to have a balanced setup, so make sure everything blends in nicely.  There should be a concept to your rig, so don’t buy randomly. Also, don’t overwhelm your audience with too many lights, remember, quality over quantity!

Don;t make things too complicated. Keep it simple and take advantage of sound-activated lights. These are easy to set up, no extra cables are necessary except for power, and offer great effects! When you’re ready, make the jump to DMX-controlled lighting.
