Stage lighting composing elements:
1. the performance characteristics of space composition
Architecture, sculpture, painting is the time and space in the flat or three-dimensional remained relatively timeless art. Performance art as a comprehensive time and space art need a maintenance concept modeling relationships of space--the theatre or concert venues. Stage artist in transcendent performance together with sound, light, color, shape, and other multidimensional factor of Visual and auditory of creative space, and over time, as well as the plot, the conversion and renewal of the scene. Whether the plot twist or theater of Opera and dance performances at the same time, the play of light in the audience to the Visual or unwittingly to light and shade effects change, changes in physical space or to optical device itself has caused all kinds of functional Visual performance results. To shape the image, rendering color, change tempo, the formation of ginseng with performances and visual vocabulary of theatrical space atmosphere, thus affecting the audience emotional changes, constitute the scene, actors and audience interaction and theatrical content with fixed space.
1, the performance space
Stage 1)
According to the performance characteristics of the scene, as well as theatre performances in the Studio environment, such as found can take advantage of objective conditions for lighting design.
2) Theatre, Studio and other performance space conditions
* Space environment: survey about theatre, drawing measurements or solicit the performance of environmental space plan, profile information, theatre desk-height, width and depth of data and the stage scale units.
* Device status: boom length, order number, order number, the space plane position, etc.
* Load: trunk rated load capacity, spur line circuit of rated load capacity, etc.
2. read the script and creative ideas
Play is for lighting, creative ideas, which can be a driving and authoring-related performance space refinement process.
1) to identify a representative character, plot changes, conflicts, imagine the desired environment.
2) on the times, times and seasons, scene environment, light direction, and color, imagination and positioning descriptions.
3) identify and adapt to show performance method and means of expression. Thinking about what kind of lighting can be used to create and story line stage and Visual effects.
4) script prompt scene, stage equipment.
3, time and space conversion performance
1) weather conditions: sunrise sunset, dusk to night, night and day, seasonal variation, night sky, location and geographical changes, etc.
2) geographical space, a mental space, scene, space, virtual space, partial and total space of conversion, etc.
4. from the plane to three-dimensional space shaping ideas
For each body surface Visual effects production processing and combinations and prospects of the space, space, after King zhongjin space plane composition application performance. Upper, middle and lower part of the space inside the Organization and implementation of methods for forecasting.
For example: backlight setting: the location of the horizontal and vertical angle, position, height, number of lamps, etc.
5, the part and the whole of the composition
Control light and color and lighting area. To the size, shape and quantity to performance stage composition of Visual images.
6, form select
According to the author's overall style determines the proper performance of the table type.
Past, present future memories even to illusion dream dream feeling impression abstract and realistic.
7, in a limited space in the infinite space
The presence in the show's enormous widely varying spatial effect of the change.
Real space and virtual space performance: specific stage space and special stage form a voice-over: dialogue: monologue, etc.
On the actual space environment improvement and development, or exaggerated or to zoom out.
On the left of the role of mental space and descriptive.
8, lighting the way of change
1) to change the plot is space changes.
2) to determine the lights change their lines.
3) to determine the lights change action.
4) to music or sound effects determine the lighting changes.
5) to time determine lighting changes.
9, different style genre of space processing
Classical, romantic, natural, realistic, token, stereo, future, composition, performance, hyper-realistic and the music, sound effects and spatial transformation associated: tune, melody and rhythm. [fenye]
Second, the space expression means
1. lighting equipment features performance research
* Flood lights: Heaven and Earth-light, pin light, top row flood lights, etc.
* Spotlight: convex lens of the lamp, soft light spotlight.

3. a study of lighting design and basic concepts: the experience and performance
A light Foundation--static character study of light distribution
Four elements of light distribution
1) main light: themes and perspectives need to determine the main light direction, the main light to other light, use the spotlight and so hard.
2) auxiliary light: is your primary photo of secondary and supplementary role, modifiers. To soft light lighting simulation of natural environment of the reflected light.
3) backlighting: based on the main light and light. Can be stronger than the main light, can also be lower than the main light and strong in the auxiliary light, decorative styling.
4) light ratio:-to parties affected by the ratio of light and shade. According to the creative needs as a light ratio adjustment, in order to get the desired result.
The angle of light distribution: 90/120/180/270 degrees, etc.
Experiment B spot
Projection position light effect visual impression of theatre lighting equipment
1) is the former top--stability and natural sense surface light
2) above-before the ramp is angry face-stereo
3) is the former level--flat face flat shot after the light fades
4) is the former below--exceptions alike foot light and low angle lighting
5) is the direction--image distortion-free look at the top of the top row of light and lighting
6) is above the side--contrast Yin-Yang face side of the bridge and the top side lighting
Level 7) are side--tough ruthless sense side mobile light and flat side light
8) as above--after a sharp sense of decoration and top top row backlighting backlighting
4. observation of life experience
A change of the natural environment, observe daylight, Moonlight-, sunny, cloudy, rainy, snowy, environmental impact
B, observation of life-light and character and scene-sunlight: light, backlighting, side light, half-side performance, and more
C, application-determine the subject content of cloth light exercise: character screen cloth light exercise.
Related factors-shade shadow color tint strength of light quality media movement vocabulary
Visual-spatial and temporal rhythm zone changes to convert forms environment handle design portfolio
Stage lighting-Studio Theatre-stage three-side reach stage four stage lighting experimental theater lighting
5, theatre lighting experiments: including theatre lighting, projection, lighting effects, visual impression

Stage lighting light bit of commonly used to want to do a professional stage lighting configurations, the road to learn stage lighting-commonly used light. This is the correct selection and configuration of an important part. 1. surface light: from the top of the front on the stage the audience with light, mainly to people facing lighting and entire basic optical shop dyeing. 2, light: located in Taiwan, inclined to vote on both sides of the estuary to the stage, divided into upper and lower floors, the main secondary surface light, enhancing facial lighting, adding people, scenery of the stereoscopic effect. 3-light (also called lateral light): from the desk of intraoral side cast light, mainly for the character or scene of two side lighting, increase the sense of three-dimensional, contour. 4, top light: from the stage above the stage, from the former to light rear row top light, second row top light, three-row top light ... And so, it is mainly used for general lighting, enhancing the stage stage illumination, and a lot of scenery, props for fixed-point exposure mainly rely on top light to solve the problem. 5, backlighting: since stage inverse direction projection of light (such as roof light, bridge and other reverse irradiation) to sketch out the figures, the King called outlines, enhanced three-dimensional sense and sense, can also be used as a specific light source 6, bridge of light: in the wings from the stage at the flyover, mainly used for secondary column of light, enhancing the stereoscopic effect, but also for other light bit of inconvenience projection of orientation, can also be used as a particular light source. 7, foot light: from the desk of the Board prior to the stage on the projection of light, the main secondary surface lighting and eliminate surface light, high exposure of facial and jaw of the shadow. 8, heaven and Earth-light: from the sky above and below into the sky light, mainly used for sky lighting and color changes. 9, mobile light: located on the wings of light shelves, light main auxiliary bridge, complementing the wings of light or other specific light. 10, chasing the light: since the auditorium or other location need light, mainly used for tracking performers or highlight a particular light, and host, is the art of close-up of the stage, to face the Dragon finishing touch.
