citazione

The row of lights at the foot of the stage. They are set in compartments which have reflectors. The front of the compartment contains a colour-frame set in a groove so that GELATINE filters, or mediums can be fixed according to the colours required by the lighting plot. The footlights are wired in circuits, and a different colour can be used for each circuit if necessary. They can also be dimmed independently or controlled from the DELI-BOARD.
