The Handbook of Stage Lighting

By Neil Fraser and Simon Bennison

The Handbook of Stage Lighting is a journey of exploration into the heart of the fascinating world that paints pictures and tells stories with the most basic of all materials - light. In this comprehensive guide, authors Neil Fraser and Simon Bennison bring to a clear and persuasive text a shared expertise and an inspirational joy in their subject. From the simplest beginnings, it takes you through the workings of lighting design and provides the technical know-how required to function as an effective lighting designer. Topics include: the lighting designer's role; researching and interpreting the text; production styles, and the relationship between directors and designers; the theory of lighting: angle, shape, colour, movement, composition and finally, choosing, using and controlling lighting equipment.
