Get Lighting Right

Expert Stage Lights Guide: Acing It

Basic Three-Light Setup

Good lighting plans start with three key lights. The setup uses a well-set main light, fill light, and back light to give depth and form for any show.

Best Light Places

• Set the main light right at a 45-degree angle for key shine. Adjustable LEDs can help control color warmth and brightness.
• The second light should be on the other 45-degree side, easing harsh shadows while lighting your area well.
• Back lights matter in making a clean break between you and the backdrop, and add a pro look.

Better Mood Tips

• Getting the right color warmth is big for the mood. Warm orange lights (2700-3000K) bring in a nice feel, cool white lights (5000K) are best for clear views in tech-based acts.
• Use top-quality color gels or programmable LEDs to catch the right light.

Boosting Your Tech

• Do full checks before you go on to find and fix any bad spots or dead areas. Digital dimmers help adjust lights during live events.
• Be sure the light covers all over where you act so every spot has a good view.
• Set your color settings right to stay looking sharp all show long.
