Abstract :
The object of the paper is to outline briefly the design and performance features of lighting equipment used in television studios. Almost all the lighting equipment, together with the appropriate optical and electrical accessories as used to-day, is the result of considerable development over a number of years in film studios, which may be likened to television studios in so far as lighting requirements are concerned. This does not mean, however, that the similarity of lighting-equipment requirements, convenient as it is, will continue, and indeed there are several original pieces of equipment designed to satisfy the peculiar needs of television lighting.
