"works with the director, choreographer, set designer, costume designer, and sound designer to create the lighting, atmosphere, and time of day for the production"
An introduction to software tools and applications for lighting design, such as AGi32, Dialux, and Relux, to design, analyze, and simulate lighting in a space.
Lighting Terminology: Common lighting terms, concepts and definitions used in the industry.
Lighting Theory: Information on the physical properties of light, such as its behavior, characteristics, and properties such as color, wavelength, and intensity.
Types of Lighting: An overview of the different lighting techniques, including ambient, task and accent lighting.
Lighting Design Elements: Considerations such as space, layout, materials, and equipment that affect lighting design.
Light Form and Function: An understanding of lighting design’s goals as it relates to aesthetics, functionality and energy efficiency.
Computer Aided Design (CAD): An introduction to CAD software used in architectural and lighting design, including AutoCAD, SketchUp, and Lumion.
Lighting Design Software: An overview of specific software used in lighting design, including DIALux and Lighting Reality.
Lighting Control Systems: A study of the automation systems that allow for the remote control of lighting, such as dimming systems and daylight sensors.
Design Methodologies: An exploration of the different approaches to the design process, such as the layered lighting approach or the three point lighting method.
Lighting Standards and Regulations: An understanding of specific codes and requirements that need to be met in particular regions, including OSHA and IESNA guidelines.
Sustainability and Energy Efficiency: A consideration of sustainable materials and strategies are used to minimize energy consumption in lighting design.
Lighting Graphics and Visualization: An introduction to digital rendering and visualization techniques used to convey lighting and design concepts to clients.
Collaboration and Communication Skills: Effective communication techniques essential toworking with architects, clients, and engineers.
Dialux: Dialux is a popular lighting design software that allows the user to simulate and analyze lighting schemes in interior and exterior spaces.
Autodesk Revit: Autodesk Revit is a platform that helps architects and designers to create 3D models and visualize the building's lighting design simultaneously.
AGi32: AGi32 is a lighting design software used by professionals to create lighting layouts, photometric analysis, and energy calculations of the space.
Visual Lighting: Visual Lighting is designed to be used by lighting professionals who design visual lighting layouts and can directly import AutoCAD files.
Relux: Relux is a software designed for architecture and interior design that creates natural and artificial lighting designs while taking into account energy efficiency.
LumenRT: LumenRT is a lighting design software that creates real-time immersive visualizations, allowing stakeholders to experience lighting effects in real-time.
Lightwright: Lightwright is a software designed for stage and theatre-based lighting design.
LightUp: LightUp is a plugin used with SketchUp software for creating lighting designs.
IESVE: IESVE provides performance analysis tools for architecture and engineering professionals.
Flux: Flux is a cloud-based lighting design software that can be used to reduce the energy consumption of a building and create a more sustainable future.
