You know those fluorescent light covers used in office buildings? They can be used for some pretty cool stage design elements! Cool, right?! Joel Wyant, the Worship Lighting & Scenic Designer at Southeast Christian Church in Louisville, Kentucky used these for their Night of Worship event.
Because of their focus on recording and video production for the night, the stage design got put on the back burner. With that in mind, Joel went to the local hardware store and bought several fluorescent light covers and went to town. He linked three sections together by grommeting the corners and using threaded connectors. He then lit them from the bottom with MAC TW1s. (Though any fixture will do fine.)
I write and speak about the creative process – especially for churches. Call me a resource for the church creative wanting to make their ministry better.
This is very cool! I like the amount of production going on there.
Anyone else see the trend going on in the stage designs. It seems most of them revolve around columns of light. Anyone working on something to break this trend?
Not saying it's bad, because it looks killer. It's just, I've seen a lot of it.
roger that. I feel the same way. Its either columns or fabric. hmm…. how to break the mold…. how to break the mold.
(but the columns do look amazing)
What kind of fluorescent light covers are they? Just the plastic piece? Or is it stainless
Sorry, just noticed your question. It was just the plastic light covers.
