Our current lighting for the front of our sanctuary is pretty terrible. I inherited the current setup when I took the job as Director of Worship and Music, and I'm not even sure what the lights are that we have right now.
We have three strips of three lights, but only use the center strip, because our Pastor thinks the others are too bright. This is partly because all three lights on the strip point in basically the same direction. Also, they are not on dimmers.
Here is our current setup with just the center strip on:
and with all three strips on:
We also have the added complication of trying to light the cross in the center of the back wall without getting too much spill onto the screens on either side (pretty much impossible the way we have it now). I thought about back-lighting the cross, but alas, it's flush against the wall.
Also, the band is pretty much in shadows all the time and can't see their music.
I'm not trying to do anything fancy, but I'd like to improve the current setup with what we've got or minimal upgrade (obviously cost is always an issue).
Suggestions? Anyone know what these lights are that we have now?
