Good Review and Teaching Tool
This book offers a good review of the basics of stage lighting and design including information about the procedures that go into doing theatre lighting. This book also supplies more current information about projection and automated fixtures. Also, my boyfriend is the lighting designer of the show featured on the cover. Pretty cool. This is a great book and I know of many lighting design students who read it as a required text for their lighting classes in college. This is a good read for people wanting to learn about lighting design as well as refine their skills.
