What Is a Moving Head Light

 

 

A moving head light is a type of and intelligent lights fixture used in many different settings. From theater to concerts, from night clubs to music festivals, this type of lighting can be seen illuminating the stage and performers with beautiful beams of light. It often has an ability to zoom out or in for more precise control of light direction.

Structure of a Moving Head Light

Normally a moving head is separated intwo 2 parts - the base and the head.

The base is the general point of contact where everything connects to. The front of the base is with display and buttons that allow for manual control options. The back is with connections of power, and dmx signals, and sometimes RDM or artnet connection. And whe it is hung up-side-down, there is also brackets attached to the base so that clamps can hang it safely to the truss.

The head is the mounted light fixture that sits on top of the base, and it's where all the magic happens!

This part is for the movement that actually contains all the lenses, pan and tilt motors, color mixing area and gobo projection or other functions. It usually has a rotation around axis that goes vertical up-down (tilt), left-right (pan) and rotates in circle horizontally(rotate). The ability to rotate depends on fixture type - some are rotating only in one direction while other have both pan & tilt motorized with unlimited 360 degree rotation. This is why it's called moving light.

One thing to note about these type of lights - they are called intelligent lighting fixtures because they have a ability to be programmed with different scenes or ‘modes' for every show using DMX 512 protocaol, which allows them to save each mode as one setting in their memory bank so there are no fumblings during setup time when needing to use DMX signal cables.

 

 

What Is the Function of Moving Head?

What is the function of moving head? If you have ever been to a concert or a live performance, chances are you have seen moving head lights in action. These versatile lighting fixtures have become a staple in the entertainment industry, but what exactly do they do? 

 

Understanding the function of moving head lights is essential for anyone involved in the world of event production or stage design. These lights are capable of producing a wide range of effects, from simple spotlights to complex patterns and projections. They can be controlled remotely, allowing for precise positioning and movement. With their ability to pan, tilt, and zoom, moving head lights offer unparalleled flexibility and versatility.

 

The benefits of utilizing moving head lights are numerous. Firstly, they can create dynamic and engaging visual displays, enhancing the overall experience for the audience. Whether it is a rock concert, a theatrical performance, or a corporate event, moving head lights can add an element of excitement and drama. Additionally, these lights are highly customizable, with a vast array of colors, gobos, and effects to choose from. This allows for endless creative possibilities, enabling designers to achieve their desired aesthetic.

Intelligent Lighting - Moving Heads

 

 

Intelligent Lighting - Moving Heads is a term used for an innovative type of party or stage light, their automated mechanism allows the lights to move and create complicated and colorful effects by a Technician on a Lighting Console. For Celebrations, intelligent lighting can create lighting arrangements of your desired color to match your theme follow your guest of honor into the room and so much more. Moving Head fixtures are often divided into spot, wash and beam lights. Spot units are generally used for their beam effect and the ability to project texture, whereas wash lights tend to be used for providing a stage wash. We offer many fixtures and combine them depending on the application.

 

What Different Kinds of Moving Heads Are There?

 

There are three different kinds of moving heads: the wash, spot, and beam. A wash moving head usually delivers powerful light using an efficient optical design, and commonly has a colour mix function. Some wash moving heads have a larger lens diaphragm so they're able to cover a larger surface area with coloured light, and many also have a zoom function. Spot moving heads tend to be used to project shapes via gobos, prisms, and animation wheels, and don't always come with a colour mix function. A beam is similar to a spot but emits an extra small light bundle. There are also hybrid moving heads that combine the functions of a wash, beam and spot in one. Since every different model from every different manufacturer will come with its own features and specifications, it's always a good idea to do some research.

 

What Kind of Bulbs Do Moving Heads Need?

 

 

Most moving heads use an LED bulb, but some still use traditional gas discharge lamps. The advantage of using a more modern and popular LED bulb is that they consume much less power and produce much less heat, so they last a lot longer than gas discharge lamps - the average LED bulb will last up to 50,000 hours. While the brightest fixtures available still tend to use gas discharge lamps, LED lighting is catching up. 

 

Can You Control a Moving Head via DMX?
 

Yes. Actually, this is almost always the method used to control a moving head, which isn't that strange, since most lighting techs want accurate control over the many functions of a moving head. If a number of moving heads have been set up, they can be linked together using the DMX input and output fitted to each fixture. This means you only need to use one cable to connect the fixtures to a DMX lighting controller. You can even use lighting software on a laptop to control all of the fixtures. This kind of software gives you all of the same control as a real, big lighting desk, but it's a little more portable. Having said this, a lot of lighting technicians still prefer to use a physical lighting desk during live shows and events, so they have something real beneath their fingers and fast and easy access to every function.

 

How Many DMX Channels Do Moving Heads Have?

The more channels a moving head has, the more control options it has. Every DMX channel stands for a single function (pan, pan fine, tilt, tilt fine, gobo wheel, colour wheel, dimmer, shutter, etc), and each function can be independently controlled via DMX. Generally, a moving head will have somewhere between 8 and 60 DMX channels. Before picking out a moving head, it's worth figuring out which functions you're going to need and how many. A simple 8-channel moving head might be all you need. Also, it's essential to check what your DMX controller will be able to handle. For example, it's not unusual to control a moving head using fewer channels than it actually offers (so maybe using 8 channels, instead of the available 13), so that controlling the fixture is more simple and leaves you with more controller space.

 

Can You Manually Control a Moving Head?

 

 

Usually, a moving head will come fitted with an LCD screen and some control buttons. This is so that manual functions that are unnavailable via DMX can be set, or it can be used as an alternative to DMX. Using these built-in controls, you can also do things like select the DMX address, trigger a preprogrammed show or adjust the rotation range.

 

Can You Get Battery-Powered Moving Heads?

 

 

They do exist, but they tend to be designed for hobby lighting techs and small parties. Mobile Djs will definitely get a lot out of a battery-powered moving head, especially when playing sets at events where a lot of power points aren't necessarily available. These kinds of moving heads also tend to be a lot more limited in terms of functionality.

 

How Can You Mount or Suspend a Moving Head?

 

 

Usually, a moving head will come including a compatible mounting bracket. More expensive moving heads will definitely come with a bracket, but if one doesn't come included, then a bracket or set of hooks can be bought separately. This hardware is fitted to the underside of the fixture and the user manual will include clear instructions on how to mount or suspend the moving head. Always secure the fixture to a truss using a safety cable when suspending a moving head, and prevent any members of the audience from wandering beneath it.

Shipping and Handling
