Lighting & Staging Zone expands for ISE 2025
It brings together the leading companies in this field to offer a broad view of the technologies involved in live event production. Also on the show floor here is the new Live Events Stage, with four days of free content sessions programmed by media company Mondiale.
Lighting continues to be dominated by LED sources, and the key manufacturers are to show their newest and most recent developments in this direction. JB Lighting will have the SPAX9 wash beam and P10 wash-zoom, while ROXX has the NEO LED wash light alongside the CLUSTER S1 pixel-mappable hybrid strobe/bar. Adam Hall, through its Cameo brand, is among the developers moving into hybrid phosphor/laser moving heads, something Ayrton has also been working on with its Cobra product.
Other big lighting names will be Clay Paky (moving heads and effects lights), ACME (moving profile lights), ROBE and its Avolites control subsidiary, Prolights (moving heads), German Light Products (moving lights and stage effects), Astera (Fresnels, tubes, panels and the LunaBulb), Ovation Lighting (theatre lights and LEDs), ETC (entertainment fixtures), Kvant Lasers (display lasers and entertainment fixtures) and Harman International, which owns Martin Professional lighting.
On the control side there will be Syncronorm, LumenRadio (wireless DMX) and MA Lighting with its grandMA3 lighting console. Capture Visualisation will be present with its lighting design software and pre-visualisation software, while Naostage is to show its latest developments in automated, beaconless live tracking.
LED will also be present within displays and video walls, with manufacturers of these including Learoy LED and AED Group, with its LED screens and large venue lenses. A niche but now widely used application of LEDs are the bracelets or wristbands worn by audience members, which will be shown by PixMob and CrowdLED.
Staging hardware specialists include: Giant Truss, Admiral Staging and Unirig. Special effects for concert and other productions will be shown by DJPOWER, beamZ/PowerDynamics and Ultratec Special Effects, with fog, haze, snow, bubble and dry ice producing machines among the kinds of effect on offer.
