PEBBLE CONVEX

G clamp Safety Chain Barn Doors Gel frame Adjustable arm 15 amp plug Pebble lenses Adjustable knob

The Pebble Convex is mainly used for general cover. The

peddle lense creates a defined edge unlike other fresnals

which maybe why you would chose the pebble convex

instead of CCT for example.

1) All spare lights can be found at the back of the hall.

2) If hanging the light from the rig or a boom the P.C must have a safety

chain, additional chains will be found at back of the hall.

3) If hanging the light from the rig attach the G clamp, additional G clamps will be found at the back

of the hall.4) If use colour gel and frames will be

found at the back of the hall.5) If you need to isolate the light

barn doors can manipulate the direction of the light. Additional barn doors will be found at the

back of the hall.

PARCAN

G clamp Safety Chain Gel frame Adjustable arm 15 amp plug

Parcans can be used effectively music gigs due it’s ability to do

chases and use of gels. Also can be used to add depth in general

washes and for astetics. I would use fresnals over a parcan as you cant control where the light falls.

You also cant focus on specific things easily as you cant up

shutters or barn doors on a parcan so the general area will be lighted.

CCT

G clamp Safety Chain Barn Doors Gel frame Adjustable arm 15 amp plug Adjustable Arm Adjustable knob

The rigged lense of the CCT creates a defused spread of light.If you wanted a less defined light

you would chose the CCT over the PC ias the pebble lense gives

a very shape edge. You would use a CCT over a Parcan because

you could use barn doors.

SELECON

G clamp Safety Chain Barn Doors Gel frame 2 adjustable nobs 15 amp plug Adjustable knob

Used for a general cover and a general wash. Light can also be manipulated with barn doors .

The selecon is the best alternative to a profile because of the rigged circular lenses. In this situation the selecon would be chosen over another fresnal like PC as it has a soft edge so couldn’t be used as a spotlight

alternative.

SCENA 1K

G clamp Safety Chain Barn Doors Gel frame Rigged glass

Although the 1k can b can be used for general cover it is prodemintly used for backlight with light gels to create a 3D effect during pieces of theatre. The 1 k could be picked

over any over light when deciding on what use for backlight purely because it is brighter than any other light. Although the 1k is

brighter it doesn’t go further. The rigged glass creates a defused light

unlike a selecon.

FLOOD LIGHT

G clamp Safety Chain Gel frame 15 amp plug

The flood light is similar to the pracan because you can’t control where the light falls and can only control the intensity of light. Flood

lights are prominently used as audience lights but can also be

used in a general wash mainly to add depth.

I would chose a parcan over the flood light in a general wash as

you can, manipulate the light with barn doors unlke a flood.

BIRDIE

Safety chain G Clamp 13 amp Gel fame

Part of the parcan family but can be used in any plug as it only needs 13 amps. I would use a

birdie in a lighting exibit over a part can as the birdie is a lot

smaller and a lot more astatically pleasing, it can also

be plugged into the wall.

PIN SPOT

Safety chain G Clamp 13 or 15 amps

Pin spots are mainly used in discos ; two either side of a

glitter ball to defect the light. Like a parcan you cant direct

the light. Are also used in expos like birdies but aren't as effective because they aren't as light, aren't as

astatically pleasing and aren't as energy efficient

change to a coloured bulb. These are located at the back of the hall.

SOURCE FOUR

Safety chain G Clamp 15 amp Gel fame Shutters Gobo holder

Source fours are good for defining a space because of the

hard or soft edge. Can easily manipulate light because of the shutters, gobo holder and gel frame. Creates a whiter light than the mininuette profile

because of the energy efficient bulb but light can be

manipulated the same way on both lights.

MINIUETTE PROFILE

Safety chain G Clamp 15 amp Gel fame Shutters Gobo holder

Like the Source Four the miniunette profile is used for

defining a space with its hard or soft edge of light I would pick a mininuette profile over a parcan when creating a stained glass window in a set because you

can use gobos and gels.
