There was a recent thread that asked what type of fixtures were in your venue. Primary light in your theatre This thread got me thinking about all the various conventional theatrical fixtures that are used in today's performance spaces. I've always been in the situation of using the lights in inventory to get the job done. However, I'm wondering what everyone's opinion is on what when to use which type of fixtures. Why use a PAR instead of a fresnel? Why use a profile with frost instead of a PC?
So when do you use
Pars
Parnels
Fresnels
PCs
Profiles
etc etc etc?
