Showlight 2025 – Hot from Dijon, Showlight 2025 releases the first of its Speaker presentation videos

One of the most successful gatherings to date, Showlight 2025 was welcomed back with open arms as it hosted a record number of delegates in Dijon for three days of lighting, gastronomy and conviviality.

You too can get a taste of what this perennial lighting quadrennial is about with the release of the first two Speaker presentation videos from 2025. These can now be viewed on the Showlight website here: https://www.showlight.org/videos

This month we feature Brad Schiller and Lucy Carter:

Brad Schiller: Transforming the Industry: The Promises and Potentials of GDTF

Brad Schiller’s presentation on improving workflows using GDTF has been the most requested presentation to date, with Showlight delegates citing it as a brilliant demystifying of the intricacies of General Device Type Format and a fantastic tool for teaching students, technicians and experienced professionals alike.

With almost 40 years of experience, Brad is an author, designer, programmer, and consultant who has also worked for manufacturers including High End Systems, Vari-Lite and Martin. He has recently joined GLP as Director of Lighting Technology Engagement.

Lucy Carter: Rhythm is a Dancer – So is Light!

Award-winning LD, Lucy Carter, by way of contrast, gave us an insight into her creative process when lighting dance, ballet and stand-alone light works, showing stunning illustrations of her work in which she imbues the light with the organic character of another dancer or performer, not just a reactive medium.

Working across many creative mediums, Lucy has worked with some of the top directors, choreographers and creative teams globally, to produce unique, eclectic and critically acclaimed lighting designs, with a vibrant and abstract style.

These are the first in a series of periodic releases, with more Speaker presentation videos going live in the months to come as we move towards Showlight 2029!
