A Practical Guide to Stage Lighting 3rd ed. Edition

covers all the basic principles of lighting design, and contributed immensely to my latest design, a huge jump in effectiveness, from my previous designs, both artistically and practically. i feel like i can eventually enter a theatrical tech program with relative confidence and ease (money permitting, *le sigh*) with the practical experience that this book provides.

This is a beautiful book on stage lighting. It'd clear, concise, and at least for me showed a systematic way to light for the stage.I learned a lot from it, and learned somethings that I knew but didn't know why.

I bought this book as a Christmas gift for my son who started college this year for lighting tech/designer. Very informative and interesting book. Like the pictures.

Good Reference!

A very complete and well-organized guide to contemporary stage lighting practices. Lots of forms and particulars for both experienced and less experienced members of the craft.

If you are learning lighting design, then you need this book. It's a no-nonsense and very detailed how-to. I use it more as a handbook than anything else.

wonderful book. Made of hours of theatres and years of experiences. I recommend this for learning and improving the skills in lighting design
