Lighting Hire

Lighting and effects can make or break an event. Whatever your lighting needs Pro Event Solutions can supply. Below are some of our more frequently used lights and lighting accessories with examples of their uses.

 

Moving heads These are extremely popular and incredibly versatile lights. You can select the colour, shape and size of the beam and then direct it almost anywhere within the venue via remote control.

 

 

 

 

Stage blinders are clusters of high power white light usually used at the front of stage to give a very bright White blinding effect. Blinders can be used to hide or disguise movement on stage and also to light up the crowd for video and photo shots.

 

 

 

 

Parcan’s are basic but probably the most used light in any venue. Parcans’s are used to provide different colours and moods across a wide section of stage or floor. The colour can be selected but putting different transparent colour sheets in a gel frame on the front of the fixture. These sheets are known as gels.

 

 

 

Truss is the frame work to which lights, advertising banners, screens, backdrops and even artists can be mounted and raised above the stage. Trussing is usually made from aluminium. It can be raised either manually or via a motor winching system.

 

 

 

 

 

Scanners This is very similar to a Mac but instead of the whole light moving the light beam is interrupted by a motorised mirror. The mirror is then controlled by computer. These typically have a faster response and are better suited to a disco situation.

 

 

 

 

 

Gobo Gobo’s are used to create a shape within the light beam for example a star, some text or even your company logo. This effect is created by placing the gobo within the beam of light and shining the light through it much like a shadow.
