I wasn't sure whether to post this in Lighting, or Off Topic, so here it goes.
I was curious if anyone on these boards has any other lighting experience, and can shed some light (excuse the pun) on the various differences. My interest was sparked last night when I stumbled onto the set of a new movie with Collin Ferrel being shot here in Brugge (on vacation). I came out of an alley and *bam* lighting truck. I exchanged a few words with the guys there, told them I was interested in lighting, and they pointed me towards their biggest instrument, 18 KW. (Er, I've never seen bigger than 1 KW. What do you need 18 KW for anyways?). I started thinking, what are the differences between Theatrical Lighting, Dance Lighting, Concert Lighting, Cinema Lighting, and Exhibit (Museum) Lighting? Are there any fields I missed in this list? Does anyone have any preference of one type of lighting over another, or have anything they would like to share on the subject?
Thanks, Charlie.
