Lighting can help to optimize any event. From a theater to a business conference, when using lighting, organizations need to determine the best use of their time and budget. Often, firms focus on using a spotlight to highlight an area of focus, such as a speaker or a dramatic scene on stage. However, spotlights are limited to a single use — a direct beam of light. Advanced technology allows for so much more to be done with lighting with the right tools.
Using custom gobos can provide several advantages over spotlights for any organization. Custom designs, patterns and logos can be implemented in a variety of ways, as can motion effects and colors in new and interesting styles. This not only adds a much broader range of lighting opportunities, but also increases the potential of lighting to be engaging and exciting.
Here are a few suggestions on how and where to replace spotlights with gobo projectors:
The right lighting makes a big difference at any event.Concerts – Any musical event can be optimized using gobos almost immediately. Light shows are already a key element in concerts, and adding gobos to the mix can add a more artistic touch to the show. Consider incorporating the band logo and using colors to enhance the atmosphere of the concert.
Motivational speaking – Rather than using as single spotlight to illuminate a speaker, use a variety of gobo patterns to add to the theatricality of the event and boost audience engagement and participation. Themed gobos can also be highly valuable, regardless of the topic of the speech.
Outdoor events – Lighting any outdoor event can be a chore, with the set up of lighting rigs and ambient light to deal with. However, gobos can provide significant advantages over other types of lighting by simplifying audience engagement despite these factors.
