Vue Lighting Rig #7: Two Spots 45 Degrees From the Side
Monday, November 12th, 2007Last week’s theatrical lighting rig for Vue, Two Spots Slightly to the Side, placed two lights at steep angles to either side of the actor. This week’s rig is very similar except the lights have moved out so they are now at roughly forty five degrees. As the light now comes from an increasingly lower […]
Vue Lighting Rig #6: Two Spots Slightly to the Side
Monday, November 5th, 2007This week I’m continuing my series of basic lighting rigs for e-on software’s Vue inspired by theatrical lighting techniques.

Vue Lighting Rig #4: Single Spot In Front
Monday, October 22nd, 2007This lighting rig is one I used a lot when I first did lighting for plays at school. We didn’t have many lights and we had even fewer channels for controlling them on our lighting desk. A single spot light is aimed so it is pointing down from the front at an angle of around […]
Vue Lighting Rig #3: Single Spot Slightly Behind
Monday, October 15th, 2007This third of my lighting rigs for Vue following on from last Mondays Vue Lighting Rig #2. This week the point light has been moved behind so it shines on the figure including both the top of their head and the bottom of their feet. With a single light source behind an actor no light […]
