LED Effects Lighting
Wash lighting and uplighting units have changed significantly in the last few years with the availability of high power LEDs replacing many of the traditional lamps.
The benefits of modern professional lighting are huge, as LED’s offer multi-colour output, ultra long life, and virtually no heat output.
The lack of heat production also means that enclosures can now be made using thermoplastics rather than metal, offering a huge cost saving, weight reduction, and far easier weather sealing.
LED units are bright, powerful, and incredibly energy efficient, using very little power to produce their effects. Traditional bulb style Par-can spots are their complete opposite, running very hot, blowing bulbs and burning £’s of power in the process due to their high wattage current draw.
BeamZ Professional Lighting
The high performance lighting systems and effects light units from the BeamZ Professional range offer incredible features and specifications for a hugely competitive cost point when compared to the older name brands.
This vast selection of lighting products includes the very latest technology in moving head and laser light systems, along with functionality such as wireless DMX control, rechargeable battery power, and IP rated fixtures for outdoor events and architectural lighting.
BeamZ Professional products have been designed for permanent installations and for live stage rigs, and have quickly become a firm favourite of rental companies. The lower cost of BeamZ products allows for an extremely impressive lighting system to be constructed on even a modest budget.
High performance lighting products such as high power full-colour lasers and both LED and discharge lamp moving head units are now at a price point that’s perfectly in line with the average budget for venue refurbishment.
The BeamZ range covers everything from power and signal cables, audio mixers and DMX controllers, through the popular DJ and mobile events lighting systems and effects units, up to the ultra-powerful spot light units, stage blinders and fresnel lens systems designed for theatres and nightclubs.
There are several types of stage lighting commonly used in theatrical and performance settings. Floodlights provide broad, even illumination, while spotlights focus on specific areas or actors.
Wash lights offer a wide, soft beam for overall colour and mood. Fresnels have adjustable beam angles for key lighting and effects, while PAR Cans produce concentrated light and dynamic effects. Moving lights pan, tilt, and change colours, while gobos project patterns. LED lights are energy-efficient and versatile. Various combinations create visually engaging stage designs for performances.
Stage lighting serves various important purposes in theatrical and performance settings. It ensures visibility by illuminating performers and set pieces, creating clear visibility for the audience. Lighting also establishes mood and atmosphere, evoking emotions and setting the tone of a scene. It directs focus and emphasises key elements, guiding the audience’s attention.
Additionally, lighting creates depth and dimension, enhances scene transitions, and facilitates special effects. Symbolically, lighting can convey themes and enhance visual storytelling.
Stage lighting is crucial for visual impact, atmosphere, and emphasis in performances. It sets the mood, establishes tone, time, and location, aiding storytelling. It directs attention to key areas, adds depth, texture, and highlights costumes, sets, and props. Lighting evokes emotions, suspense, and moods, engaging the audience.
In summary, stage lighting enhances aesthetics and drama, amplifying the production’s impact.
Stage light wattage varies based on fixture type and purpose. Traditional incandescent lights like PAR cans or Fresnel lights range from 250 to 1000+ watts.
LED lights offer energy-efficient options, with smaller fixtures around 10 to 100 watts and larger LED moving heads or wash lights from 100 to 1000+ watts. Wattage alone doesn’t determine brightness; optics, beam angle, and colour mixing capabilities also affect performance.
The cost will vary based on factors such as fixture type, quantity, design complexity, control level, and equipment condition (new/used). Production/venue requirements also affect costs.
Professional or large-scale productions requiring various fixtures, control consoles, rigging, and power distribution systems can be a significant investment.
Technology advancements, like LED lights, have made lighting more accessible and cost-effective, with energy efficiency and longer lifespans. Ultimately, stage lighting costs depend on project needs and budget.
