Followspot

A followspot is a powerful, manually operated spotlight used in stage productions and concerts. It allows a technician, called a followspot operator, to focus intense light precisely on a performer as they move across the stage. The operator can adjust the brightness and direction of the light in real-time to keep the performer illuminated and visible to the audience. Followspots enhance visibility, emphasize key moments, and add dramatic effects to a performance, serving as a vital tool for professional lighting design.
