Whether large concerts, variety show, or small music party, with lighting effect, rendering the atmosphere, contrast the music to express ideas, manufacturing site effect, has an irreplaceable role, but the effect of lamps is now a wide variety, from traditional cheese lamp, back light, spot light, effect light have computer scanning lamp, lamp, lighting, and air rose, laser lights and so on, in the face of category so various lamps, lighting designers how to reasonable use, to express the desired lighting effect? Effects of lighting design on the designer's imagination, first only think of the effect it is possible to achieve it, if not sure there would be no need to talk about implementation. Imagination is the basis for the understanding of music, because music is lighting design basis and aim, i.e. lighting effects in order to better express music atmosphere and expression of the philosophy of music, then we'll talk about how to use lighting to express and express music. Music mood determines the light tone
Because the music emotion is color, such as warm and passionate music, then the lighting with warm color, may be red, yellow, and minor composed music, available in blue cold shades of light. It is easy to understand, is an art of synaesthesia, about the same thing in different type of art expression, is just the difference of expression, whereas expression of feelings are the same. The music emotion understanding and grasp, we can first determine the light in tone, what kind of music in what tone color light.
The rhythm of the music determines light rhythm
This is what we usually call lights and music with the specific time, how? The first thing to understand music tempo beat, beat is three or eight six beats, understand the downbeat and upbeat, can use different colors of light and the light intensity should be the music beat, if the music is very fast, the light will not be in every beat, can ignore its upbeat, reflect only the strong, music can be used to reflect the endless dark. We can use light duration, intensity, color and type of change to reflect the note duration, volume, pitch and timbre changes.
The music determines the structure of the light structure
We get the structure is divided into physical and non physical structure, lighting designers often put the bobbin lamp, light, computer lamp, lamp with different combination modes of installation which is divided into several levels, light three-dimensional effect, which is the light of the physical structure ( spatial ); what is the lighting of the non physical structure? A song has the prelude, Intermezzo, melody, rhythm and other auxiliary components, lighting was also divided into sections, by different light combinations, different variations to reflect the different part of music. We can according to music rhythm and melody will need to prepare some light moves to change" tool", according to the music composed of each part in different ways, and these lights action changes of different combination constitutes a light non physical structure. So we say music determines the structure of the light structure is the light of physical structure.
The music of some special and important details to use light reflected
The music of the CLS, a SOLO instrument is a piece of wonderful light effect, special emphasis on and reflect, so in the lighting design should be aimed at music special important detail arrangement of some special light moves to change to reflect.
To make a long story short, the effect of lighting design to music as the basis, for the purpose of music to romancing atmosphere. So the lighting designer must music on the structure and content of a deeper understanding, in order to design satisfactory lighting effects.
