Looking at Light is an introductory text for theatre lighting designers. It is an appropriate resource for students at the college or university level who are interested in learning about lighting design at a fundamental level.
While the resource is designed as an introductory lighting design program for University students, it may also be useful to high school students who are interested in technical theatre, adults who are involved in community theatres, high school teachers who find themselves being responsible for lighting (even though they have little training in the area), or professionals and amateur theatre and dance practitioners from non-lighting areas.
This is a design-based course, and while there is some effort to explain the technology involved with theatrical lighting, it is not meant to be a resource to learn how to be an electrician or programmer.
