What is a Stage Focus Light Called?
Finding the right lighting for your production can be tricky. Knowing the specific terminology is crucial. This article clarifies the name for a stage focus light and explores its variations. We'll cover the different types and their applications to help you make informed choices for your next event.
Types of Stage Focus Lights
A stage focus light, often used to highlight a specific actor, object, or area on stage, is most commonly called a profile spotlight. However, you might also hear it referred to as a:
Fresnel spotlight: This type uses a Fresnel lens, which creates a soft-edged beam ideal for washes or highlighting larger areas. While not always used for tight focus, it can be adjusted for this purpose.
Ellipsoidal reflector spotlight (ERS): Also known as a Leko, this offers a sharper, more controlled beam, perfect for precise focusing. This is generally considered the quintessential stage focus light. These lights often allow for gobos (templates that project patterns) and shutters (to shape the beam).
Choosing the Right Focus Light
The best type of stage focus light for your production depends on your specific needs:
Fresnel spotlights: Better for creating a wider, softer wash of light, useful for less focused highlighting.
Ellipsoidal reflector spotlights (Lekos): The preferred choice for tight, precisely controlled beams, perfect for highlighting specific actors or objects.
Understanding these differences is vital for lighting designers and technicians. Knowing whether you need a Fresnel or a Leko directly impacts the success of your production. The right choice ensures the key elements of your stage are highlighted perfectly. By correctly identifying and utilizing a stage focus light, you achieve a polished and professional look.
