There&#;s nothing quite like the energy and excitement of a well-produced live event. Whether it's a musical performance, graduation ceremony or a dramatic play, having properly set-up, professional, lighting will help make a great impression on your audience. At Stage Electrics, we have more than forty years of experience in lighting. We&#;ve seen it all, and have a solution to any issue, a setup for any venue and a team of technical experts who can help make sure you get the right lighting solution for your needs. Here&#;s our simple guide to choosing stage lighting for your school.

Though it may seem obvious, keeping costs down is often a key consideration for many organisations, and schools are no different. However, whilst buying the lowest-cost lighting solution may seem like the most logical thing to do, there is such a thing as too cheap.
Saving money on an ongoing basis is also a concern, and it&#;s often the little things that can make a big difference. For example, choosing LED fixtures over tungsten ones mean you&#;ll be using less electricity. They also produce less heat which is safer and requires no lamp/bulb changes (which with lights mounted on the ceiling is a real time saver!). Our lighting systems can be designed around a wide range of budgets, and we cover everything from small halls to larger auditoriums.
Even in the most safety-conscious environments accidents can happen. That's why it's important to choose a lighting solution that&#;s rugged enough for everyday use and doesn&#;t include anything that could become a safety hazard. Your lighting solution will get plenty of use, and they need to stand up to the rigours of regular handling.
To ensure your system provides years of safe, efficient, light we can help you stay up to date with all the required safety regulations and certifications. We provide EICR, ISITEE (PAT), LOLER and PUWER inspection, testing and compliance services, and can handle any ongoing maintenance your system might need. So, you can stop worrying about your lighting solution and focus on what you do best - teaching your students.
Unless your school is fortunate enough to have a trained technician, some systems may prove daunting. Complex lighting solutions often involve complicated hardware, software, and instruction manuals that may as well have been written in hieroglyphics! Fortunately, a lighting solution doesn&#;t have to be complicated. Choosing the right lighting solution that&#;s both easy to set-up, and easy to use, could save you time, money, and technical issues down the line.
For schools looking for an easy to use lighting solutions we recommend Opus systems, they are designed for busy teachers. It turns on with one button. Speakers, projector, and overhead lights are all controlled from one simple control panel. Opus just works.
Have music on your ? Plug it in, or connect via Bluetooth, and play. Want to show a video from YouTube? Link your laptop and you&#;re away. A CD? A DVD? Opus plays them all without the need to download drivers, swap around wires or call in IT support. Ask us for more information on Opus systems and how they create a stimulating, immersive, environment for pupils to live, learn and play.

The night of the big student performance or end of year ceremony is the worst time to discover your lighting system isn&#;t up to standard. When choosing a lighting solution, you want to choose a model from a proven, trusted manufacturer. It&#;s no good buying a lighting solution only to find you can&#;t get spare parts or that there&#;s no support when issues crop up.
We maintain an extensive warehouse full of industry-leading, widely recognised lighting, sound and stage equipment.
Whatever the size of your hall, stage, or venue it is always worth consulting a professional before making any purchases. If you&#;re simply replacing an existing setup, it may be possible to simply choose lights with the same or better performance as the outgoing fixtures. But if it&#;s for a new space or to cover the expansion of a particular stage it's often worth getting specialist advice to make sure you don&#;t end up with a system that doesn&#;t provide enough light, or worse one that blinds everyone on stage the second you turn it on.
At Stage Electronics we can help. Our technical team have installed customised systems in everything from small studios to large university facilities and our approach is the same wherever we work. The right system for you and your needs.
One of the main issues in buying a new system is making sure it&#;s actually what you need. Our vast experience and expertise in lighting, sound and video presentation solutions, combined with the wide range of products and services we offer, means we will only recommend a solution that&#;s right for you. If you don&#;t need it, we won&#;t suggest it. It&#;s why customers come back to us year after year. Trust, service and value &#; it&#;s what we do.
Whether you want to talk about our Opus audio, visual and lighting systems, or a bespoke lighting solution for your school, we&#;re here, ready to help you find the right lighting solution for your needs.

Neither of the lighting systems described will provide adequate light for the stage set up you describe. These systems are generally purchased by DJ's to add some flash and trash to the dance floor and aren't really intended for theatrical use on the scale you describe.I would advise speaking with a local lighting rental shop about their thoughts on lighting the area described and the costs of providing adequate lighting.Another option, that might be part of the same conversation is to see what you can move from your theatre into the gym and what would be needed in terms of hanging light and providing adequate power and control.Depending on your budget, you may be able to come up with a more effective alternative to the purchase the systems described.Best wishes,Dana-------------------------------------------Dana TaylorMSD of Mt.

The idea is to give the students a new challenge as they perform on a traverse stage (audience on both sides of the performance area). It's going well, and the students are really digging the contemporary additions (embodied in a very driving, pounding techno soundtrack - of course).I am looking to purchase some kind of portable lighting. I am, for my sins, looking at Amazon and have found two potential candidates for lighting purposes.American DJ Supply Jelly Par Profile System Bright LED Stage Wash Light System Rgb Color Mixing with Stand/Case/Foot Controlleris one of them. Here's the link to the amazon page:This set runs to $270 or so, and I'd probably need two. I need to light an area that is 45 foot long and 19 foot wide.The other isMBT Lighting PARPACK_ Mobile Lighting Systemlink:and is about $175. The reviews are good, but seem directed to DJs or musical acts, so I'm wondering, because in my previous professional life as an actor, I never paid attention to all the technical stuff (something I'm desperately trying to remedy as a first year theatre instructor), so can anyone tell me if these lights will light up my stage enough for my performers to be seen? I'm finding it really hard to choose between the two; I kind of like the idea of the LED ones as they have some features that could be used to great effect. I am also thinking that these lights would be useful for other shows that are planned that won't be in the auditorium, as well as being a potential teaching tool for the mammoth amount of technical theatre students I am gaining next year.Any advice on either of these units, or an equivalently priced but more practical alternative, would be really, really appreciated!-------------------------------------------Phillip Goodchild-------------------------------------------
