This workshop is directed at participants who want to gain a first insight into lighting design. We will learn about the basic technical equipment used in a design, and we will look at concepts such as luminosity, intensity, diffusion, brightness, levels, flux, contrast, colour, realistic and non-realistic lighting. We will explore the process of designing through a practical case-study.
