Description

Never draw a lighting setup on a scrap of paper again.
Lighting Designer is a quick and intuitive way to create overhead lighting plots for film, theater, television, concerts, and anything else you can light. The wide selection of equipment and simple yet powerful interface makes it easier than ever to illustrate and communicate your lighting setups, all from your versatile mobile device. Your iPad is a larger canvas and a great presentation tool; your iPhone will go with you anywhere. And if you like, your Plots will sync among all your iOS devices, so you can start plotting on one and finish on another.
LD is perfect for tech scouts, working while traveling, or just choosing the couch over your desk chair. While expensive drafting programs can take hours to use and years to master, Lighting Designer is an accessible way to plan your next show!
Features:
• Organize your setups into Shows, with details like shooting dates and crew members
• Choose from over 2000 built-in types of lights, grip equipment, camera gear, actors, and objects like furniture and musical instruments
• With a Crescit Premium account, you can have access to an additional 25,000+ pieces of lighting equipment, gels, and gobo templates
• Use your own images to create custom fixtures on your Plots (read the User Guide for image specs)
• For each light, specify wattage, beam spread, light output, DMX address, color, and many other details
• Certain fixtures include info for exposure approximation; all can be user-configured and have their exposure reverse-calculated from real-world readings
• Use Groups to create flexible collections of lights
• Notes allow you to describe every detail of your setup
• Pack your Truck to share gear among multiple Plots
• Draw a Floor Plan using basic shapes, and images from your device
• Lights can target other objects, and objects can rig onto each other for easy adjustments
• Email editable Plots to the crew, with images, equipment, and crew lists
• Undo/Redo functionality
• Optional iCloud sync
• Dark Mode presents a dark workspace to reduce eyestrain and minimize your device's light in a dark environment

Nearly there but...

This works well but has some quirks with resizing the plan and naming objects that I’m sure will be solved soon. The main reason for not giving 5 stars is the lack of export functions. It really needs at a minimum vector based PDF export so you can fine tune what you hand out. More export and import functions would be fantastic, like dxf, and svg as well.
Not being able to import your own fixture graphics is annoying but not a show stopper as the inbuilt library is reasonable and you can rename as required.
The email output is ok, but hard to get the image dimensions right, and not really very configurable. I found I had to mail it to myself, edit the output to get it the way I wanted it.
Overall, a good app and worth the price.

Good but

This is a great little app in that you can use it wherever you can use an iPad Pro - thus very portable and straight forward.
I would like to see more export and save options other than to image - would love to see a DXF and PDF export option.

Disappointing

One star for a great idea but no stars for being glitchy, crashing constantly and clunky UI. The design screen jitters when dragging, never centres where zooming, won't let me fine tune edit shapes and it cost $32aud! Get it working properly guys before you ask that kind of money.
