Moving Heads Spot

Our moving spot lights offer high-quality performance and build design. The narrow lens of each light allows for a focused beam of light in a cone-like shape, which means it can light up one specific point of a stage rather than a wider area like a wash light does.

Some of the mini LED spot moving head lights that we offer have a gobo function. This will produce patterns like stars, semi-circles and abstract designs, while you still have the option to have an open gobo so the produced effect will be a full circle like you would see with a classic spotlight on a stage.

A great feature that these moving head spot lights have is RGB colour mixing. This feature means that you can mix the LEDs to produce at least 8 colours including white if you're going for the classic spotlight effect.

In order to have the light focus on a particular place on the stage, you would need to connect it with DMX hardware or software. By using the light with DMX control, you have complete control over where it points to, the colours it produces, as well as features like dimming, strobe, fade and focus.

For smaller productions such as small clubs, pubs or halls, you may only be after one moving spot light for the effect you are going for. If this is the case, most of our moving head spot lights will come with a remote which is extremely user friendly and useful if you don't have DMX equipment.

What are Moving Head Spot Lights Used For?

The easy implementation of moving head spot lights at any sized venue provides a light show that is guaranteed to suit purpose. As mentioned, their narrow lens creates a focused light beam of one static colour (such as white, for the typical spotlight effect) or can even project patterns from gobos. 

There is the option of installing them both above a space with included clamps for hanging them from light bars or truss, or they can be set up on the floor at the front or back of a  stage, for example. Our range of head lights have small feet on their bases for balanced freestanding, where they can shine upwards and all around illuminating the entire area. Building up an entire collection of them will create an impressive light show with a variety of effects that can be utilised for an enhanced experience.

Buy Moving Spots For In Venues

Quite often these types of lights are used portably, i.e. for touring musicians going from venue to venue with their own light show. With programmable effects, they offer reliability and consistency in their output as they will deliver the same show every night. 

This also makes it perfect for theatres (such as in the West End), who are hosting long-running shows. As they can be placed in the venue for longevity, you can program the shows just one time and receive the same results for months and months, and then do it all again whenever you need to. They also suit pubs, clubs and dance halls, where just one or a few of them will make for an excellent addition to the ambience and atmosphere.

Effects Of A Mini LED Spot Moving Head Light 

Amongst our large range of moving spots, some packages include flight cases making them especially usable portably and provide protection to the units in storage. There are also some lights that are “hybrid”, like the BeamZ Professional Tiger 7R, meaning that they offer both the spotlight effect as well as a wash effect, outputting a large wall of light with soft edges that spreads across a large space.

Spotlight effects create a fixed area of light onto a projected surface, usually a stage, to draw the attention of the audience to one person or thing. They can even create a thick beam of light that can shine across the desired area. Using several together at once can create different patterns and largely illuminating results.

Additionally, there is the option of colour mixing the mini LED spot moving head light’s RGB/RGBW LEDs with pre-programmed colour mixes on the DMX channels. Added gobo wheels also provide a whole variety of patterns that can be utilised with performances for interesting displays.

Project Patterns And Shapes With Moving Spot Lights

Gobos are thin pieces of metal with patterns/shapes/words etched into them that can produce silhouettes of the designs when placed in front of a beam. They sit on a wheel that is comprised of around 8 gobos so that multiple are available at once. On these wheels, they can either be projected in a static state for a still silhouette or shown while rotating or shaking.

They don’t necessarily have to create shapes when used, as some can break up the solid beam of light and turn it into several beams, making it look like you are using more than one light. Adding to the shapes available, there are some spots on gobo wheels that are interchangeable so that you can swap in your own gobos that you have on hand or have had especially made. Open spaces on a wheel result in one solid beam spot.

Moving Head Spots With DMX Addressing

Construct a full stage lighting setup by combining up to 32 fixtures in a daisy chain. When paired altogether with the correct DMX cables, each has to be addressed accordingly to deliver the effect desired. 

Features available using DMX addressing include: solid colour beams that can then be mixed using different values (e.g. value 015-019 for Red and Yellow blending), static/rotating/shaking gobos, panning, tilting, strobe, dimming and adjustments to the effect timings. The panning and tilting abilities can produce a great looking light show with constantly moving head spots of light.
