How do I select laser power for different broadcast studio programmes?

Update Time:2026/9/24

Direct answerSelect power based on studio size, camera exposure settings and programme style. Medium-power RGB animation lasers suit talk shows, award ceremonies and TV variety sets, while lower-power units handle logo projection and soft background effects.

Power Selection by Programme Type

Programme typeTypical laser requirementNotes
Talk shows and news setsLow to low-medium powerSubtle logo and background graphics
TV variety and talent showsMedium power RGB animationVisible effects that stay under camera limits
Award ceremonies and galasMedium to medium-high powerBeam effects over a larger stage volume
Music and live broadcastMedium-high power with beam controlHigher output with strict audience separation
Shopping and corporate studiosLow powerStatic logo and product highlighting

Three Parameters That Decide the Final Figure

  • Studio volume: ceiling height and stage depth set how much beam the camera can see
  • Camera exposure: shutter speed and iris determine how bright the effect may appear on screen
  • Beam use: audience scanning, aerial beams and graphics each allow a different output level

Confirm values with a camera test on the real set, because broadcast exposure changes the perceived brightness considerably.
