What Are Effect Lights?

Effect lights refer to specialized lighting fixtures that enhance visual storytelling and energize the crowd through strobe, spot, laser, and ambient visual effects.

At SHEHDS, we offer a wide range of lighting stage effects, including:

• Strobe & Marquee Lights – Deliver rhythmic flashes for high-energy effects.
• Laser Roller & Moving Heads – Add dynamic movement and multicolor animations to your setup.
• LEKO Profile Lights – Ideal for crisp edge lighting, color washes, and cut shaping.

How to Choose the Right Stage Effect Light

Choosing the right stage lighting and effects depends on your venue and goals. Consider the following:

1. Purpose

• Do you need to highlight performers (use follow spotlights)?
• Want to energize dance floors (go for strobe or laser roller lights)?

2. Brightness & Wattage

• Small venues: 200W–250W profile/strobe lights.
• Large venues: 330W+ follow spotlights or 1000W moving head strobe.

3. Beam Type

• Spot beam for targeted highlight.
• Wash effect for broader atmospheric lighting.
• Roller or moving beam for dynamic sweeping visuals.

4. Control Modes

Look for DMX, auto, sound-activated, or remote-controlled lights, depending on your setup complexity.

Expert Tips for Using Effect Lights

• Use moving spotlights for focal emphasis in performances.
• Sync strobes with beats for immersive DJ shows.
• Combine static and moving effects for dynamic light layering.
• Use barndoors and shutters on Leko lights for scene shaping in theaters.
