2021-07-20

Stage lighting is developing with the development of science and technology. With the application of digital network control system and computer 3D lighting special software technology, the design of stage lighting has developed from the traditional plane drawing effect to the stage when all design scheme data of performance lighting, such as computer lighting, can be presented in advance in the computer, and all design schemes can be recorded and stored, which can be directly used for the program control of actual performance lighting, Greatly shorten the production and debugging time, and the visual effect will be more clear.

 


1、 Practical significance of fashion stage lighting

The process of stage lighting design and creation includes the whole process of understanding the performance content, performance environment and stage creation. In the lighting design, the lighting designer should have certain creative ability, imagination and artistic appeal, and be able to observe the overall situation and grasp the performance process, so as to achieve the effect of promoting emotion, helping to shape characters and rendering the stage atmosphere. And the designer is required to adjust the application of his design in the performance according to the actual conditions of the scene, including the scale of the stage, the conditions of the scene, the types and quantity of lights that can be used, etc.

With the continuous progress of the times, stage lighting design has also kept pace with the times. In addition to mastering the application of various new technology products, such as computer lights and computer design programs, the most important thing for lighting designers is to be creative, accept the requirements of modern aesthetics ideologically, and be able to use them for themselves, meet the requirements of performances, and constantly innovate and make breakthroughs, Modern stage design is different from the design of the past few decades, the most prominent feature is fashion design.

 


2、 The purpose of fashion stage lighting

(1) Stage lighting design principles. The basic principle of stage lighting design is to make every audience see what they are looking at. Its purpose is to design and configure the lighting equipment needed in the performance reproduction process according to the form and connotation of the performance content to the audience, so as to make the stage lighting system accurate and perfectly cooperate with music, dance and drama performances, make the performers' creation more colorful and give the audience artistic infection.

(2) Stage lighting design requirements. The stage lighting position shall be arranged so that each audience can see the actors and other objects on the stage (except for special requirements). Every object must be illuminated in a balanced and proper way so that the light of the lamp can represent them correctly. Each part of the stage should have light distribution points, and can be flexibly converted.

(3) Stage lighting design and creation. First of all, it is necessary to analyze the performance type, performance focus and performance content, characters, scene conversion, space-time conversion, etc., and understand the stage analysis conducted by other majors, and determine the expression methods in combination with the unified direction of director, stage design, clothing and other departments. On this basis, investigate the conditions and conditions of theater and stage equipment, according to the situation and spatial characteristics of theater and stage, combined with the performance content to determine the feasibility of lighting design. Watch the rehearsal, understand the process of the performance, and determine the opportunity for scene conversion, sound and lighting changes. On this basis, the stage lighting layout plan should be made, and the whole layout plan should be implemented in each changing plot in the drawing process. The drawing process of light distribution diagram is the description process of the whole performance, including the distribution of the stage plane and elevation, the type, model, position, quantity, direction, combination mode of projection lamps, etc. Finally, it is made into a computer program for use.

As a designer, what should be avoided in the creation is: 1. The responsibility of lighting designer is not only to pursue a charming visual picture, but also to ignore the coordination of visibility and color. 2. The concept is conservative and complacent. Today, with the rapid development of science and technology, we still follow the old idea of creation, and are even satisfied with the idea that the white light is enough for the performance. 3. There is no opinion in the creation, so we can't understand and explain the performance (script) from a professional perspective, provide suggestions and ideas for the overall stage art creation, blindly obey the direction of the director, even all the lighting colors and changes.

 


3、 The combination of stage lighting design and fashion works

The combination of fashion and tradition, the combination of stage lighting design and modern fashion elements, such as "impression of Yunnan" by Zhang Yimou, the opening ceremony of Guangzhou Asian Games, and the works "difficult brilliance" and "beautiful Xinjiang" designed by the author, which won the 2011 excellent repertoire award of the Ministry of culture.

The National Concert "beautiful Xinjiang" is a musical feast full of strong national style. It starts with the composer Liu Chi's "our good place in Xinjiang" which is well known to people, and ends with the national orchestral ensemble "my motherland". The theme of this concert is to highlight the main melody of national music. The Central Ethnic Orchestra and the Ethnic Orchestra of Xinjiang Art Theatre jointly perform the brilliant movement of national unity. The main repertoire includes "Alam Khan", "girl of Dabancheng", "spring of Tianshan", "spring of Xinjiang" and "ripe grapes", reflecting the different styles of Xinjiang multi-ethnic music culture.

The beautiful and rich Xinjiang has the unique customs and scenery of China's ethnic minorities. Under the leadership of national music, the theme of this design is to make the stage lighting add light and color to the music, so as to achieve the purpose of "depicting the stage with lighting and showing the beautiful scenery with lighting".
