Welcome to Vision

Welcome to Vision 2024 pre-visualization software for entertainment design and production professionals. Vision allows you to previz the conventional lights, moving lights, video, and other effects that make up a production, simulated in the context of the event venue. Use Vision to program and cue your show, whether you are selling a concept to the client, testing lighting cues, or conforming lighting systems for a new venue. You can previz without being at the venue or having a crew on standby. Experiment with looks and cues, and review the options with clients and artists before the actual load-in.
