Lighting simulator

A simulated rig shows the client what they will get, and shows us whether the positions work, before a single bracket is fixed.

Also in test facilities

Lighting is hard to describe and easy to show. We model the room, place the fixtures and render the looks — so coverage, angles, shadows and colour can be agreed in a meeting instead of discovered at focus.

What it settles

  • Whether the available bar and truss positions cover the acting area.
  • Fixture quantities and types, against the looks the venue needs.
  • Angles and shadowing on faces, which matter for cameras as well as audiences.
  • How architectural and stage lighting interact.
  • What can be cut from a budget with the least damage.

Handed over as files

The model, the plot and the patch documentation go to the venue, so future productions start from an accurate record.
