This book was perfect for what I wanted: a more in depth study of how LARGE scale operations take place; and what kind of options are available in the low-mid level price/scale range.This is a fairly technical book; but not too technical. I have no formal training in lighting; only what I read on the net; and in manuals. I would recommend this book if your looking to take your small production to the next level. It really lays out options including specific fixture/console names and who are the major players in the industry.The intro history section was SUPER cool; a great read even for a non-technical individual.1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. very useful book for the automated lighting techniciansBy Valeria Silva CantoI really like this book because it describes how the moving lights Works; it explains the electrial; electronics; data; mechanics; optics and networks.Very easy to understand and complete. Its very technical if you dont know about computers and electronics but if you have worked with the moving heads I think its not a big deal.The book also has some tips for programming and the lighting design.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful.
