Live Design has always covered lighting stories, but we have collected together more than five years of light plots for you to view and learn from. Published with crew and gear lists, frequently alongside in-depth interviews with the designers themselves, our Light Plot Library is free for both students and professionals to peruse.
Each plot can be expanded to view in detail, and related stories often include slideshows so readers can see the lighting onstage.
Check out Live Design’s Folio: Eddie Award-winning work in the Light Plot Library!
