Lighting technicians are responsible for the movement and set up of various pieces of lighting equipment. This include separation of light and shadow or contrast, depth of field and/or visual effects.

A Malaysian Associate Lighting Director & Trainer, Mr Sahat Amin said in addition, lighting technicians may also lay electrical cables, wire fixtures, install colour effects or image patterns, focus the lights, and assist in creating effects or programming sequences.

He added that anyone using light on for TV production, particularly lighting designers and including those involved in the production team, need to develop an awareness of the behaviour of light in a natural environment and the way that light is handled in various media.   “This is not so much a matter of formal study as a continuous informal response to the world around. The major equipment of lighting designers is their eyes: everything else is subsidiary”, reiterated Mr Amin.

He was sharing his expertise while conducting a 4-day AIBD-RTB In-Country online workshop on Lighting for Studio and Location TV Production from 22-25 November 2021, hosted from Kuala Lumpur via zoom platform.  He was sharing his expertise while conducting a 4-day AIBD-RTB In-Country online workshop on Lighting for Studio and Location TV Production from 22-25 November 2021, hosted from Kuala Lumpur via zoom platform.
