Concerts

Concerts rely on stage lights, not only to solve the problem of "lack of visual focus" in indoor environments - using follow-spots to accurately lock on the performers, avoiding the audience's viewing experience being affected by distracted vision in a closed space; but also to create "scene-based narrative" through lighting: whether it is the soft warm light of lyrical songs, the explosive strong light of rock songs, or the futuristic light effects of electronic music, they can allow limited indoor spaces to break through physical limitations and switch atmospheres with the style of music, allowing the audience to get a more immersive live experience in addition to auditory enjoyment.

Basic Lighting: PARs and LED PAR arrays provide basic stage lighting and wash lighting, creating an overall atmosphere.

Character Lighting: Follow spots ensure the singer's clarity and brightness regardless of position, while face lighting (LED flat panel soft lights) enhances facial details.

Effects and Dynamics: Computer-controlled moving-head pattern lights (beam/spot) are used to cut beams, project patterns and logos, and create dynamic effects; computer-controlled moving-head wash lights (wash) provide wide-ranging color rendering.

Atmosphere and Interaction: Lasers and strobes create intense visual impact during climaxes; smoke machines complement beam effects to enhance the quality of light.

Control: A professional lighting console is used, programmed and operated on-site by the lighting engineer according to the rhythm of the music, ensuring perfect synchronization of lighting and music.

Pain Points:

Imbalanced Lighting: Excessive effect light can cause the singer's face to appear too dark or overexposed.

Out of sync with the music: The lighting rhythm doesn't match the mood and tempo of the music, resulting in a poor experience.

Glare: The light beam directly hits the audience's eyes, causing discomfort.

Equipment reliability: During large-scale performances, lighting fixtures or control links may malfunction.

Solution:

Prioritize lighting based on the character's face, then add effect lighting, and control the lighting ratio through console programming.

Hire an experienced lighting technician (VJ/LD) to conduct pre-production music analysis and on-site real-time control.

Carefully design the projection angle of lighting fixtures to avoid direct exposure to the audience, or use anti-glare accessories.

Use high-quality equipment and implement redundant backups (such as backup consoles and signal amplifiers), and thoroughly test them before the performance.
