About Color Gel Sheets...
Add Excitement to Your Event
Even if you’re not a lighting expert.
|
If you’ve ever seen a play or concert,
or been to a church or indoor speech, you probably didn’t think much
about the stage lighting. And yet, stage lighting does so much to
enhance every event – from allowing you to actually see what’s
happening onstage to setting the mood and building excitement against a
dazzling backdrop of moving colors. Imagine a dance floor without a
strobe light or a disco ball, or a murder mystery play without a
dramatic spotlight – it’s not an impressive thought. Obviously
someone’s put a lot of thought into the lighting at each and every
event that you see. From the colors you choose to the intensity of the
spotlight, lighting can really make or break an event. Not a stage
lighting professional? No worries. Even if you’re not an expert, you
can add a dramatic touch to your own events by learning a few basic
lighting techniques.

Gel Sheets: Adding Oomph to Your
Production
|
Gel sheets are the most inexpensive
lighting tools used by lighting professionals. For less than $5, you
can choose from over 500 different colors of opaque gel sheets – and
each sheet can be cut to fit four to six stage lights. When placed in
front of extremely bright flood lights and parabolic aluminized
reflector lights, or PAR cans, used in stage lighting, these gel sheets
transform the stage from dull to vibrant with hues of blue, red,
orange, yellow, green, pink … and everything in between. Gel sheets can
be combined to create another hue (think back to your elementary school
color wheel) or used in tandem to create splashes of different colors
across the stage.
Typically used in stage productions, concerts, clubs, and churches, gel
sheets add that final punch to the entire performance. As an added
bonus, these gel sheets can be cut and used over a regular light bulb
at home, creating a unique and interesting ambience for parties and
barbeques.
|
Lighting: Setting the Mood
|
When designing the lighting for your
event, there are a couple of basic lighting techniques to keep in mind.
First, you need to think about intensity – brightness versus darkness.
For a more subdued and serious mood, use fewer PAR cans or less intense
bulbs to create a subtle lighting effect. For brighter lighting that
allows the audience to clearly see the stage action, use more PAR cans
for a very intense effect.
|
Color: Pumping Up the Audience
Your next decision will be choosing between white
light and
colored light. This decision wholly rests on the kind of performance
you are lighting and what you want to total effect to be. For instance,
white light is probably best for lighting a city official’s speech. A
high school dance, on the other hand, would need lots of colorful,
rotating lights to match the energy of the crowd and the music.
And, remember to have fun with your lighting. Experiment by changing
colors to match the mood and stage action or to build excitement and
anticipation in the audience. A simple way to do it is to use a
four-channel controller with four PAR cans. Place a different gel sheet
in each can – say, red, blue, yellow, and green – and voila, you have a
basic lighting setup.
|
The Power of Color
There are many different psychological effects
that are
associated with lighting colors. Keep these points in mind when
designing your lighting:
• Blue is generally the most pleasant color to the human eye. This
color is used often in churches for a soothing, calming effect.
• You won’t see a whole lot of red when you go to a big concert or
club. The reason? Alcohol enlarges the blood vessels in the eye, so
people under the influence don’t see red very well.
• Yellow, used often in traffic lights, can be seen from the greatest
distance.
No matter what color combinations you choose, keep changing and
rotating the colors to add energy, drama, and excitement to your event.
Using a wide spectrum of colored gel sheets is a cheap and easy way to
make your performance pop.
