Light Bytes - Creative Collaborations

Light Bytes – 4th June 2021 @ 16:30 BST / 17:30 CEST Creative Collaborations – Projection and Lighting Design Projection is no longer out of reach for most productions. The technology has improved dramatically making projectors that are smaller, brighter and more affordable and we are seeing these more and more on shows today. Software for both content creation and media playback is more easily accessible, powerful and affordable. These factors, coupled with our desire to create productions that are more visually stunning mean that it is not uncommon for a show to have both a lighting designer and a projection designer as part of the creative team. What are the considerations we need to be thinking about when planning for a show that is going to make use of projection? What conversations should we be having with the projection designer? Are there elements of the lighting design that might need to change or be approached in a new way? In our next edition of Light Bytes, we will aim to answer these questions and many more. Join us and our panel of industry experts as we discuss how to collaborate creatively with the members of the creative team.
