Fill Lighting

It’s simple – you want your guests to see what they’re doing. Fill lighting can accommodate this most simple requirement. They are almost required at some venues that do not have lighting systems – most common with private residences.

How is it done?

Wash and Fill Lighting effects are accomplished by using “light trees” which are an arrangement of light fixtures mounted on a large stand / truss system. They are usually raised high into the air (8-10ft) to get above guests point of view and allow the light to “wash” or “fill” over the top of your guests or arrangement.
