Every now and again I get asked what lighting I use for my events. It’s an interesting question to ask as it’s easy for me to reel off a list of the various models of lights that I use.
However, I know that most of my clients aren’t experts on the various types of disco lighting available, so the challenge for me is to explain in clear English. So here goes…
I have a range of lights that I use, with the usual lights being the ones in the photo below.
These are par cans and scanners/barrels, which provide a range of effects for the dance floor. In plain English, I have flashing lights and moving ones.
All my lights are computer controlled so I can change the routines to suit the environment. For any slow dances such as the first dance I tend to slow everything down by putting the par cans (the ones that provide the colour) to a static red and the scanners/barrels to a slow rotation.
Strobe lighting is possible using my lights but I tend to only use strobing for school discos. I can configure the speed of the strobing and have them below the recommended threshold advised by the Health & Safety Executive (which is 4 flicks per second – very fast!).
