We know that you want incredible event lighting to complete your event. You want a mood-setting feel that will prepare your attendees with the opportunity to resonate and feel the tone of the moment and impact their responses to it. We love designing the essential and subtle elements of event lighting!! Out of all the moving parts of producing and planning your event, lighting is one of the last planned pieces. Beyond drawing in your audience, lighting is an element that solidifies the quality and professionalism you have worked so hard to achieve in planning your event. Lighting is the hook for your audience to feel and become immersed in the experience’s ambience. We at Straight Street love finishing off your event production planning with professional lighting solutions to do just that.
Lighting up your stage is an integral part of any event. It is the powerful magic that allows the focus to be where you want it to be and on whom you want it to be. It allows you to dim specific screens while enhancing the lighting of others. Even lighting with minimal shadows can be a profound way to tell your story or set the tone for your event. Straight Street uses stage washes, LED, and digital lighting to zone in the room’s full attention to one place. This allows the focus also to be versatile to the theme, colours palette and changing lighting quickly.
We want to hear your room lighting vision and make it happen. Lighting can make a room dazzling, pop or evoke a mood or ambience unlike anything else. Small lighting reinforcements can light up a space, a table, or a section of your room to highlight focal points or create an aura or feel for attendees. Beam lighting and pin lighting are targeted with delicacy to focus on finer details in your space, effectively and intimately. Another ambience boost is to dim or turn off the regular house lights in the venue and create an intimate setting with highlighted floor or wall lighting. Wall washing is a lighting technique that places the fixture far enough away from the wall plane, a compelling backdrop for your event to light it up from top to bottom uniformly.
If you are looking for a cost-effective idea that will strengthen your event’s visual experience, gobo production is a great solution. A gobo is an effective alternative to banners and signage on corporate events, providing something visually different for the audience to absorb. Derived from Go-Between or Goes before Optics), a gobo is a thin piece of metal or glass used to create or modify patterns, imagery and shapes to enhance the theme of your event. This cost-effective technology is used with Ellipsoidal Reflector Spots, allowing you to use light to project a sign or display affordably.
Moving lights have mounting flexibility and expansive mobility options. They can be utilized in various venue settings, in the ceiling, on stands or at ground level. Along with ease of movement in all directions, they can change colours and types of projection beautifully. The capacity of creating mood shifts and heightened anticipation for suspense, thriller or excitement generation is such a bonus using moving lights. Light beams and effect lighting can highlight special moments such as an announced recipient or speaker, or awaiting a significant special event to begin.
