Planning and lighting the set

The lighting of the set is a very important aspect of the show, as we need to beable to see all of the show at all times. In shows like for example (Friday night with Johnathan Ross) they have a very complex lighting rig because they have all of the show lighted in different ways, reasons for this is for example because they have music artists performing so they have to get different sorts of lights to light the stage. With the tv studio that we are going to use, we do not really need to use a big selection of lights because are set is quite close together. The main lights that we need to use is the key light, the back light and the fill light. All of the lights have barn doors so if one of the lights isn't working like we want it to in rehersal we can ajust the barn doors so that it can focuse the light in the right place.
