| Disco lighting for business award ceremony |
I've been attending lots of events lately reason being to post on my blog about the things that liked and disliked at the event. I have noticed that most events planners are not aware of how bright and colourful stage lights can be. Yes want them but do not make us blind. As an event planner it is important make sure that the stage lighting is not too much for the guests. We need them to see where we going and who's on the stage. Events planners need to know that there are people with eye sight problem despite that they wearing specs, they still can't see if there's too much light. There are differents kinds of lighting for certain types of events, for a cocktail party event am expecting disco lighting so use an appropriate lighting according to the description of the event.

Do I need to put rainbow lighting?
Do I need disco lighting?
Events planners need to understand how professional the event is and that will determine what needs to be there such as if its a business function there will be a presentation. There is no need to include colourful lighting because its a corporate business function, and the clients don't wanna be distracted by the rainbow lighting that doesn't fit in the description of the event. I think it is wise to chose a suitable lighting for your event.
Event organisers must please know what they are doing, i mean how can one use bright lights for a seriouse business event?
ReplyDeleteYou could say that again Faith, that is why events planners need to know how to use appropriate lighting for different events.
DeleteI see nothing wrong with having lights in an event, it makes the theme unique, but like you said...events planners should find or use a suitable light or lights for a specific event.
ReplyDeleteTrue the lighting makes the event unique, but we also need to acknowledge how events planners are using the lighting and whether if its really appropriate for the event. Some events they really don't need to spice up with lighting.
DeleteLets say you're an event manager and u're hosting an event and you get a complain that the lights are too bright and there guests with eye sight problem, how are you gonna handle this matter?
DeleteI totally second you in your post events planners need to do research on how to do lighting for certain events if they do not have an ideas.
ReplyDeleteNomzamo events planners need to know accomodate everyone when they include lighting in their plan, the clients need to feel welcomed. Lets say you are the event manager and there are clients with eye sight problem, they feel like the lights are too bright, what are you gonna do to solve this matter?
ReplyDeleteWow I'm shocked never thought I live long enough to see fomal events turned into a danc club, i mean it is as if the event oganiser was clueless even if he,s excuse was creativity one needs to know when to draw the line
ReplyDeleteYes Bongani lets say you are a guest there with eye sight problem what will be your reaction to the event manager?
DeleteI'd probably leave before even entering and declare the party a huge failure
DeleteI've experienced the exact same problem at one function I attended where the lights on stage where so bright the crowd couldn't look at the stage for to long without having to shut their eyes for a bit because of the effect of the light
ReplyDeleteLooks like we have experienced the same problem. Lets say you are the event manager and this incident happen whereby a guest complain about the brightness of the lights, how are you gonna solve this matter?
Deletefascinating blog indeed, and i think bright lights are entirely inappropriate for a corporate business function
ReplyDeleteThanx, and there is no need to put them.
ReplyDeleteThe colours don't complement each other, this creats problem to an eye sight...i think you should be an event planner or adviser. Good one!
ReplyDeleteThanx dear i wouldn't mind being the events manager
Deletemost of the events planners lack the combination of colours which becomes a big problem for them. nice blog.
ReplyDeleteThanx thats what I thought about events managers
Deletei couldn't agree with you more, these bright really kill our eyes and so true on the issue of not seeing who and what is happening at up there at stage.
ReplyDeleteYes people need to be able to enjoy the event and not complaining about it.
Deletetotally agree with you
ReplyDeleteThnx i try to give my best opinions

ReplyDeletenice blog I love it.
ReplyDeleteThank you I try to give my opinion
DeleteBefore anything I Love the concept of focusing on the lighting aspect of an event. What many dont understand is that lighting plays an incritic role to the tone and feel of the event. Light is my view sends out a feel on the type of event it is, what is to be expected and so no. it important for event planners to want to proparly exercute their lighting well enough because it could be of much distraction to the event and more importantly the attendence of the guests.
ReplyDeleteTrue events managers should know the needs and the wants of their clients
Deletemmh nice question indeed, in my point of view i think the decoration depends on the event because you cant plan an event at inkandla homestead also known as the president's home with so many disco lights, rainbow lighting and staff thats a no no because you going to cause the presindent's cow to have blurry vision and the president will be not pleased about that and for the next event hes so not going to call you
ReplyDeleteLOL... true events planners must know the theme of the events before anything else
DeleteGreat blog, its so informative especially for those who want to do events one day.
ReplyDeleteLove your graphics.
Thanx dear I try, I hope that those who are interested in events management will take some of my advices
Deletelighting is really important and if it is done in an irritating manner guests are more likely not to enjoy the event,that goes to show that it is vital
ReplyDeleteYes people wont be able enjoy the event
Deleteto the fact that you have noticed that most events planners are not aware of how bright and colourful stage lights can be and also steal our attention from what we focusing on...event planners should always remember to avoid such interupting and repulsive thing to do.
ReplyDeleteI couldn't agree with you more...Events planners need to know and follow the guidelines of how to plan events
DeleteLight... I think this is why people ware shades indoors.
ReplyDeleteLOL i guess but not everyone are fans of shades ey
DeleteI was just being honest
ReplyDeleteI think as an event planner you should put lights which will suit the the kind of event you will be hosting. For exemple you cannot put disco lights at a formal coca cola pr event.
ReplyDeleteYes Juwi,as an events manager you need to follow the guidelines
