Lighting Design Logbook
At the intersection of creativity and technology, lighting design exemplifies how thoughtful design principles and powerful software tools can bring ideas to life. The lighting design resources and tools featured, showcase how advanced CAD-based workflows, photometric rendering, visualization, and real-time control can transform both technical challenges and artistic vision into clear, compelling results. By learning from these examples and integrating lighting design thinking into our software development process, we not only improve how we build tools and interfaces but also how we communicate complex concepts and experiences.
Lighting Design — Get Prepared
Between 1999 and 2017, Tehnif Software worked in partnership with Chicago Stage Equipment Co. Inc. DBA Design & Drafting. We combined lighting, sound, video, set design and event planning into an ALL-IN-ONE CAD program - LD Assistant.
Lighting Design — Software at a Glance
LD Assistant is a Lighting Design Software for Stage Lighting, Audio, Video and Event Planning, that merges advanced lighting design algorithms with 2D & 3D standard CAD tool set.
Lighting Design — Software Features
Drawings are made up of objects. You can create a range of objects, from simple lines and circles to spline curves, and ellipses. When specifying a point, you can enter distances, offsets, and measured intervals.
Lighting Design — Gallery
A realistic rendering of a model can often give a product team or prospective client a clearer vision of a conceptual design than a plotted drawing. Rendering creates a 2D image based on your 3D scene.
Lighting Design — The User's Voice
... it’s difficult to embrace all of LD Assistant’s features; therein lies the beauty of the program. Power users will never exhaust all the potential of the software, but they are consistently able to push the envelope of their own designs.
Lighting Design — As Reviewed by Industry Media
For adding the powerful 3D rendering tools of Viz 4 and Lightscape and credibility of IES standard photometrics to entertainment designer’s toolboxes – and making them user friendly enough to use without three new textbooks – we recognize Design and Drafting’s LD Assistant Ac with VIZlink.
Lighting Design — Business Facts
We understand much more than just CAD ... we understand Design, and more importantly, we understand users business. Our software solutions successfully combines lighting and event planning into an ALL-IN-ONE product.
