LXRob Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 Hi, thanks for taking time to read this. I am doing my first lighting design (I normally board op or assistant design) and wondered if there is a database somewhere on the web of lantern symbols, the kind you would find on vectorworks or other design programmes, just so that I could drag them over and build a lighting design on the computer? for free (or relatively cheap)I really need a few good lighting designs in my portfolio as I am applying to uni next year too study lighting design, so any help would be much appreciated =]Thanks a lot!

paulears Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 Hi Rob,Much depends on your choice of software, so I can't help with Vectorworks - too expensive for me. I'm intrigued by the portfolio. Don't the unis want to ses real drawings from shows you have designed for? I don't think they're that interested in plans without realisation - unless you've actually tried them, it's just a drawing exercise? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LXRob Posted January 7, 2011 Author Share Posted January 7, 2011 Thank you very much this has been very helpful and I am lookin at lxfree now =] This plan will be realised in a small production of 'little shop of horrors' so should be a relevant piece of my portfolio. Thanks Rob :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
