Television Lighting Routines

William R. Ahern

The lighting installation of NBC Studio 8H features convenient facilities for setting up the many and varied lighting routines required by today's television shows. Efficient operation of these facilities reduces studio usage for lighting purposes, and consequently increases the number of shows which can be staged each week. This paper describes the installation, and provides a documentary account of the process of lighting a typical dramatic show.
