Utilizing lighting gels for your event, party or production needs can be one of the most cost effective and spectacular lighting decisions you can make. Used in all types of stage, television and film productions, it's also high temperature resistant and very versatile.

So what is lighting gel and how is it used? Quite simply, light passes through a colored sheet and then becomes the color of the lighting gel, which absorbs all other wavelengths except for the one you want to show. Do you want to bring out the shade of primary blue? The lighting gel will absorb every other color except primary blue. Thinking of a more red effect? Then put in a sheet of red lighting gel. Are you looking for a multi-colored effect? Then splice two or more sheets or pieces of different colored lighting gel together to create this look. Lighting gel is very easy to work with because it can be cut to size with either a scissor, knife or cutter and then simply placed in the gel frame of the lighting fixture. The gel frame is easily put into place by sliding it into the brackets in front of your light fixture.
