What is Focused Light
Focused Light is a type of lighting technique used to highlight particular spots or objects on stage. Unlike wash lights that provide overall illumination, focused lights are directed to draw attention to specific elements of a performance or event. They can be achieved using either conventional lights or moving lights, depending on the specific requirements of the production.
The process of setting up focused lights involves identifying the areas or objects that need to be isolated or highlighted and determining the best placement for the lights. This can include areas on stage, specific scenes in a play, aisles in the audience, or individual band members. The lights can be permanently hung in the lighting rig and redirected as needed or controlled from a console for moving lights.

Focused lights enhance the presentation and add production value to the lighting design. They create a sense of depth and focus, allowing the audience’s attention to be directed to specific moments or elements of a performance. By selectively illuminating certain areas or objects, focused lights contribute to the overall visual impact and storytelling of a production.

Frequently Asked Questions
What Does It Mean to Focus Lights
Point the light in the desired direction and position the brightest part of the light, known as the hot spot, at the specific focal point where the light should be concentrated.
What Are Specials Theatre Lighting
In stage lighting, a special refers to a lighting instrument that is specifically designed for a particular purpose, rather than being used as part of a larger system like an area light or color wash. Specials are typically used on their own or at a higher level compared to other lighting instruments.
What Is the Difference Between a Flood Light and a Focus Light
Spotlights emit a concentrated beam of light, whereas flood lights provide a broader area of illumination. Spotlights are ideal for illuminating specific objects or areas at close range, while flood lights are better suited for illuminating larger areas such as parking lots.
What Is the Best Focus Light
The right lighting can greatly impact your studying and reading experience. Opting for warm white or soft white lights with a color temperature of 2700K-3000K can create a calming atmosphere and promote restful sleep. On the other hand, choosing cool white lights with a color temperature of 5000K-6500K can enhance your productivity and concentration levels.
What Type of Lighting Is Best Used Within Theatre
A popular choice among lighting engineers for providing extensive color coverage and color mixing capabilities on stage is the strip light. Available in both standard and LED versions, strip lights are commonly used to enhance the visual effects in theatre productions.
