1. Accessories-
• G-lamp
• safety chain,
• gel frame
• adjustable arm
• 15 amp plug
• encased light bulb
• Beam angle- 24 degrees
Explanation-
Used for aesthetics and music gigs. You can also create a chase with them. They
are also used to add depth to general cover.
Compare & Contrast-
If I was creating a chase for a music gig I would use a Parcan over a Profile or a
Birdie. I would choose a Parcan because it can create a chase, its aesthetic, it
has gel frames and it is mainly used for general cover. I wouldn't use a Profile
because it wont create general wash and it is mostly used for specials, like
gobos and iris’ and I wouldn't use a Birdie because it is too small and the light
isnt powerful enough.

2. Accessories-
• G-lamp
• safety chain
• gel frame
• adjustable arm
• 15 amp plug
• Barn doors
• Adjustable knob
• Beam angle- 60 degrees
Explanation-
Used for general cover. Also can be used as a spot light if you are in desperate
need of a spot light because it is the closet thing to a spot light, because of its
pebble lens.
Compare & Contrast-
If the Profiles are broken but I need to isolate an actor, I would use a PC over a
Selecon and a CCT. I would use a PC because the light has a defined edge and
so the actor would be more isolated and it also has the same lens as a profile
so it is the most similar. I wouldn't use a Selecon or a CCT because neither are
as defined as a PC.

3. Accessories-
• G-lamp
• safety chain,
• gel frame
• 15 amp plug
• Barn doors
Explanation-
Used for a general wash and can also be used to optimise things on stage
because of the barn doors.
Compare & Contrast-
If I was using side light for a dance performance I would use a CCT over a
Pinspot or a Profile. I would use a CCT because it defuses light and it has barn
doors. I wouldnt use a Pinspot because it is generally used for lighting
glitterballs and it also isnt powerful enough for side light. I wouldnt use a
Profile because its too defined and wont create general wash.
• Adjustable knob
• Adjustable arm
• Ridged circular lens
• Beam angle- 35 degrees

4. Accessories-
• G-lamp
• safety chain
• 15 amp plug
• Barn doors
• Bigger than a CCT
• 2 adjustable knobs
• Beam angle- 6-60 degrees
Explanation-
Used for general cover, but can also be used to manipulate the light because of
the barn doors.
Compare & Contrast-
If I was creating a general wash for a Christmas show I would use a Selecon
over a PC and a Parcan. I would use a Selecon because they are normally used
for general wash. I wouldn't use a Parcan because they are only used to add
depth and I wouldn't use a CT because they are too defined.

5. Accessories-
• G-lamp
• safety chain
• 15 amp plug
• Barn doors
• Wire mesh
• Beam angle- 30 degrees
Explanation-
Used for backlight to help create definition of the actors. It is also used for
general wash.
Compare & Contrast-
If I was creating backlight for a musical I would use a 1K over a Birdie or a
Profile. I would use a 1K because it defuses light and is used for general wash. I
wouldnt use a Birdie because its too small and is usually used for aesthetics. I
wouldnt use a Profile because its too defined and wouldnt create a general
wash.

6. Accessories-
• G-lamp
• safety chain
• 15 amp plug
• Shutters
• Gel frame
• Gobo
• Iris
• Beam angle- 25 degrees
Explanation-
Used for lighting a stage, but mainly used for highlighting objects and people on
the stage to make them stand out from everything else on the stage around
them.
Compare & Contrast-
If I was trying to create a window effect for a set I would use a Minuette Profile
over a CCT or a Parcan. I would use a Profile because it isolates a spot and it
also has a gobo and shutters so it is easier to create and effect with them. I
wouldnt use a CCT because it is used for general wash and doesnt have a gobo
and I wouldnt use a Parcan because it cant define the spot as much.

7. Accessories-
• G-lamp
• safety chain
• 15 amp plug
• Shutters
• Gel frame
• Gobo
• Iris
• Beam angle- 16 degrees
Explanation-
Used for lighting a space or highlighting people or objects on stage. Uses an
energy saving light bulb so the light is brighter and whiter than the one in a
Minuette Profile.
Compare & Contrast-
If I was isolating an actor on stage I would use a Source Four over a Selecon or a
Flood. I would use a Source Four because it is a defined spot light and it is used
for isolating actors. I wouldn't use a Selecon because it is used for general cover
and has no defined edge. I wouldn't use a Flood because it is used for general
cover and cant direct light.

8. Accessories-
• G-lamp
• safety chain
• 13 amp plug
• Gel frame
• Barn doors
• Beam angle- 15 degrees
Explanation-
Used in museums and exhibitions. Can also be used in truss’. Mainly used for
aesthetics and lighting the audience in performances.
Compare & Contrast-
If I was lighting the audience I would use a Birdie over a Selecon or a Parcan. I
would use a Birdie because it is aesthetic and it doesnt produce much light so
no attention would be taken off the actors on stage once the audience was lit. I
wouldnt use a Selecon or a Parcan because they are too big and bright and
create too much general wash.

9. Accessories-
• G-lamp
• safety chain
• 15 amp plug
• Beam angle- 12 degrees
Explanation-
Used for to light glitter balls or used in museums and exhibitions. You cant
change the colour but you can change the bulb.
Compare & Contrast-
If a talent show required a glitter ball effect I would use a Pinspot over a Flood
or an LED Parcan. I would use a Pinspot because its main purpose is to light
glitter balls. I wouldn't use a Flood or an LED Parcan because it creates too
much general wash and you cant direct the light.

10. Accessories-
• G-lamp
• safety chain
• 15 amp plug
• Gel frame
• Beam angle- 60 degrees
Explanation-
Used for lighting a cyclorama mainly, but sometimes used to light the audience.
You cant direct the light on them.
Compare & Contrast-
If I was lighting a cyclorama I would use a Flood over a Profile or a Birdie. I
would use a Flood because it creates a general wash and has a wider angle of
light. I wouldn't use a Profile because its too defined and is normally used for
specials and I wouldn't use a Birdie because it is too small and wouldn't
produce enough light.

11. Accessories-
• G-lamp
• safety chain
• 15 amp plug
• Beam angle- 18 degrees
Explanation-
Used for general wash, but the colour can be changed from the desk so you
don't need a gel.
Compare & Contrast-
If I wanted to provide multiple colouring allowing the mood of the scenen to
change I would pick an LED parcan over a Flood or a Parcan. I would use and
LED Parcan because it has the 3 primary colours built into it and it can be
changed by the desk. I wouldnt use a Parcan because its only used to create
depth and I wouldnt use a Flood because the colour can only be changed by
changing the gel.
