Moving head lights make the perfect all-round choice for live events & theatres as well as schools & colleges focussing on performance arts. Whether permanently installed or for short term lighting hires, these all-round lighting workhorses steal the show!

In addition to providing an endless spectrum of intense saturated colours, subtle pastel hues and white tones, they also feature 4-blade framing systems, rotating & static gobo wheels, circular & linear prisms or bi-directional animation wheels for spectacular lighting effects.

Essentially there are four main types of moving head lights: spot, wash, profile and beam. Although each type of moving head has its unique purpose, combining them effectively can create captivating lighting designs.

Spot Moving Heads produce a tight, focused beam of light. They are ideal for highlighting specific objects or individual performers. Generally with a small lens and a single high-powered LED, a spot moving head light will produce a bright, concentrated light beam in a cone shape, ideal for illuminating lead singers, solo performers or specific props on stage, creating dramatic effects with sharp edges.

Wash Moving Heads provide wide, diffuse beams of light that cover large areas with a soft-edged light for overall stage illumination. By re-positioning and changing the colour of the wash, the mood or atmosphere of the event on stage can be changed quickly and easily between different acts and stage sets.

Profile Moving Heads combine features of both spot and wash lights with versatility and precision. With adjustable focus and edge shaping. They are often used to create defined shapes and highlight specific areas or to project moving patterns using gobos for added visual effects and texture on stage.

Beam Moving Heads produce narrow, intense beams of light for long throws and impactful effects. Their narrow beam angle and high-intensity output are often used to highlight specific areas or performers or to create impressive aerial effects and dynamic movement, adding energy to the overall lighting design

Flicker free moving head lights with adjustable PWM frequency and silent cooling are ideal for use in television studios or film sets for any performance which will be camera recorded.

Flexible control options include built-in W-DMX transceiver, DMX, RDM, Art-Net or sACN.

In conclusion, moving head spot, wash, profile & beam lumieres offer lighting designers almost endless possibilities.
