A lighting designer is responsible for creating the lighting effects and atmosphere for theatre productions, concerts, television shows, and other live events. This role involves working closely with directors, set designers, and other members of the production team to develop lighting plans that enhance storytelling and mood. Lighting designers use creativity and technical skills to select and position lights, programme lighting cues, and operate lighting control systems. The job often requires working unsociable hours, such as evenings and weekends, especially during performances and events. Many lighting designers are freelancers, which allows for flexibility but can mean inconsistent work patterns.
