Title: Literature for lighting
Post by: Aleksi_Luonila on April 12, 2019, 03:53:34 AM
Hey!

I bumped on this forum while I was browsing another day, so I'm a newcomer here.

I'm writing a final thesis on the usage of automation in stagelighting/theatrical lighting and was wondering, does anyone here have any suggestions of literature in the subject? I've noticed they are pretty hard to come buy. Especially where I live.

Sorry for grammatical errors, English is not my mother tongue.

And thank you in advance!

Hi, and welcome to the forums!

There are a number of instances of production companies using Ableton Live to automate the light shows that they pre-programmed, synchronizing with the music.

This would be dependent on programmed MIDI tempos for timing (and click tracks, and pre-recorded instruments to augment the performance.)

I’m new to Ableton, and, while researching the product, its use in automating lighting seemed interesting.

That might be a good area for you to research for your thesis.

Best regards.
