12. Instruments Par Lights - a can designed to make use of a parabolic lamp practical. Important information: 1. Has no lens 2. Produces a specific size beam based on the size of the can

13. Scoop – A reflector that floods light in a particular direction Important information: 1. Has no lens 2. Delivers a very smooth wash

14. Important information: 1. Used for stage washes Striplights – A strip of lights in one housing 2. Used for cyc lighting

15. The two most common instruments used in theatre are _______________ and _______________. Parnel Ellipsoidal Reflector Spotlight

16. Parnels – Important information: 1. Has a controllable beam = focusing instrument. 2. Can be varied from a SPOT to a FLOOD beam 3. Used for down, side, back, and effect lighting is given its name from the type of reflector used in the fixture.

17. Ellipsoidal –LEKO/ERS Important information: 1. Has a controllable beam = focusing instrument. 2. Can vary edges of the beam to soft or hard 3. Shutter the beam to keep the light off places you don’t want hit 4. Two types – axial quartz and incandescent (refers to type of lamp – we use quartz) Difference = quartz does not darken when it gets old like incandescent Most prominent instrument used in theatrical stage lighting.
