This includes overseeing all lighting equipment, systems, and personnel to deliver the visual impact envisioned by the Lighting Designer and Director. The role also involves close collaboration with the Head of Video and other department heads to maintain seamless integration of lighting and video elements in every performance. Key responsibilities for the Head of Lighting include leading the department to achieve the desired creative effect, developing a thorough understanding of all lighting systems and equipment, and recreating and maintaining the lighting design at each venue.
