Lights+and+the+Theater+Breezy

Stage lighting has many effects for the audience. The first illumination is to have the audience be able to see the actors. The second is revelation of form, which creates the illusion that flat things are 3-D. Focus directs the attention of the audience to a particular area. Mood sets how the audience should feel. Light also can perceive what time of day it is. Lighting can also be used to create scenery. In order to get the proper effects, the lighting people need the correct intensity. These are measured in lumens. They also need the right color, these are measured in Kelvins. The pattern in which the light turns out is based mostly on how it reflects and refracts.
