Lighting, video and special effects are used in theatre to create moments of stage magic. They can have a stunning impact on the mood of a piece of theatre. Special effects can be subtle or devastating if they utilise pyrotechnics or weaponry. Video is being used increasingly frequently as a dynamic and effective way to produce backdrops or even fully interactive scene settings. This collections features videos that will let you into some of the tricks of the trade.
