Color & Light

Navigating Color Mixing in the Midst of an LED Revolution, A Handbook for Lighting Designers
This is an essential practical guide to how colour works in light. Written from the perspective of a theatrical lighting designer, it discusses how to see colour, how to construct effective lighting palettes, and how to make use of both colour filters and colour-mixing LED fixtures to create compositions that work well with scenery and costumes to tell compelling stories. We are presently at the leading edge of a revolution in theatrical lighting, redefining how it can be used to create and communicate. Todays LED-based additive colour-mixing fixtures require new methodologies and new ways of thinking, and the book directly addresses this technologys potentials and challenges. But underpinning lightings many recent technological changes is the fundamental language of colour that artists have worked with since the birth of humanitys artistic urges. More saturated vs. less, warmer vs. cooler, more green vs. more magenta, recessive vs. dominant -- the bedrock language of colour manipulation endures, whether you are putting paintbrush to canvas or calling up colour attributes on a high-tech lighting console. Balancing the basics and the latest innovations, this is a book for everyone involved artistically with light and colour. It will enhance your understanding of how a lighting setup works from a colour perspective, while equipping you with the language to communicate about colour with your collaborators.
