David, thank you for the continued great content you provide. I am doing a lot of research as I get ready to attack updating the 20 year old lighting system in our 1600 seat auditorium. Fixture selection, fixture placement, Art-Net and console comparisons has been great information for our ministry. Thanks again!
I'm looking to create a simple but effective portable lighting setup with about $2000 budget (I know that's not much) for my Michael Jackson tribute show. We mostly play smaller indoor venues (200 people or less) or outdoor events such as music festivals and fairs. I'm not sure what lighting pieces I should be looking at for this kind of show/budget. Any advice would help immensely
Great channel and great video! I understood that front lightning is a must like warm light Fresnels and\or COBs but I just can't find a right model for OUTDOORS. What's your recommendation for outdoor gigs? Thanks in advance! Blessings.
It's gonna cost you more, but they are out there. For example, the ADJ ENCORE BURST 100 IP.
@@LearnStageLighting Thank you!
I am new to the lighting game and love the tips and tricks. However, i need to apply these to lighting a MMA cage and boxing ring. With some effects between rounds and during music.
Best advice for lighting during the bout? Cob wash lights? Or Audience blinders? The less i have to carry around the better.
Cheers.
Woah, that’s some issues. Need ceiling anchors. The big problem I see is you don’t want to lights to block the view of the audience. Then you need even spread in one specific spot, the ring. I’ve found washes tend to not travel as far. I prefer a 25 degree angle fixture over 15 foot. So, the distance from mounting to subject important. You can use cob washes for audience blinders really well. I enjoy moving head beam lights (2 or 4 degree beam), but not only are they $400 each, they weigh around 60lbs and hang a good 18+ inches down. They can atomize out to 9 or 11 degrees and usually have color. Their effect works best with Haze. Look for beam 230 or 330s just 4 of them might really help. I currently use 8 of them.
Hi Erik,
As Mikkal mentioned, there are a lot of "what if's" to tackle before I could make a recommendation. You CAN light a MMA ring without hanging things from the ceiling, it just takes some more thinking! Honestly, I would probably start with some white pars or blinders to light the ring, and then think about some effects with some blinders or small moving lights. But a lot of this depends on size of ring, size of room, where you can put lights, etc. However, it is the kind of stuff we work with people on every day inside Learn Stage Lighting Labs - learn more here: lp.learnstagelighting.com/learn-stage-lighting-labs/
Seeing is believing, especially for first timers and beginners, I like the advice but is there anyway you can show the placement?..not computer model but in studio..so that we see the placement and effect of each placement...be it a club with no elevated stage or a venue with an official stage area..
As I've mentioned before, I am working to add more of this in - however - combing through footage OR going to shoot unique footage for each video will add significant time to my workflow. It would mean that I literally would only put out a video once a month, or once every 2 months. With the visualizer, I like the 80/20 effect - I can get you *most* of the reality, in very little time. As this site grows, I am glad to put more "live" footage in, but right now it's not cost-effective for my time! I hope you understand :)
