Showlight 2025 Releases First Presentation Videos

One of the most successful gatherings to date, Showlight 2025 was welcomed back with open arms, hosting a record number of delegates in Dijon for three days of lighting.

You can get a taste of what this perennial lighting quadrennial is about with the release of the first two Speaker presentation videos from 2025. These can now be viewed on the Showlight website: www.showlight.org/videos.

This month features Brad Schiller and Lucy Carter:

Schiller's presentation, Transforming the Industry: The Promises and Potentials of GDTF, has been the most requested to date, with Showlight delegates citing it as a brilliant demystifying of the intricacies of General Device Type Format and a fantastic tool for teaching students, technicians, and experienced professionals.

With almost 40 years of experience, Schiller is an author (a regulator contributor to LSA), designer, programmer, and consultant who has also worked for manufacturers including High End Systems, Vari-Lite, and Martin. He has recently joined GLP as director of lighting technology engagement.

In Rhythm is a Dancer -- So is Light!, the award-winning designer Carter provided an insight into her creative process when lighting dance, ballet, and stand-alone light works, showing stunning illustrations of her work in which she imbues the light with the organic character of another dancer or performer, not just a reactive medium.

Carter has worked with top directors, choreographers and creative teams globally to produce unique, eclectic, and critically acclaimed lighting designs, with a vibrant and abstract style. These are the first in a series of periodic releases, with more Speaker presentation videos going live in the months to come as plans begin for Showlight 2029.
