Welcome to Purple Light, an award nominated design and or programmer/operator service directed by Simon Horn, working in Touring, Concert, Corporate and Installation disciplines.In both design and programming the ethos is to create striking wow factor imagery, respecting all mediums including lighting, video, LASERs and custom set pieces.
Pride is taken in delivering concepts where all components within the design work in harmony, while respecting lighting and video should be a landscape painted around a performer to compliment their performance, while never over shadowing them (unless that is what the artist wishes!)Imagination is key, Simon is a firm believer that just because a light can move it doesn’t always have too. More exciting movement can be created in so many other ways though colour, beam shaping and intensity effects. When he does actually use movement he tries to find interesting ways of doing so.Simon Horn was shortlisted as one of the final 3 designers in the 2018 Knight of Illumination Awards in the Event category. A very proud moment to be one of 30 people to that date in the last 10 years to have ever been nominated for that award.
