Beamwright is an easy to use utility that helps you choose the right light for every situation. Given the distance from the light to the actor and the size of the acting area you want, it helps you choose the best light among those available.

Beamwright actually recommends lights for you, taking into account how closely the beam size matches the area you want to cover, the brightness of the light, and how even the coverage is. You can have it choose from one or more kinds of lights (such as Ellipsoidals and PARs), and if a zoom unit is suitable it'll zoom it to the correct beam size and show you how it performs.

Unlike other similar programs on the market, Beamwright is fast, easy to use, and goal-oriented. It doesn't include unnecessary frills such as pictures of the lights or gel transmission data; it just gives you the quickest and best way to compare and choose between the hundreds of lights in its inventory.

And of course, it's easy to add more lights to Beamwright's inventory and make categories such as "Favorite" or "Stock" and browse among them or have Beamwright consider only lights in certain ones when it makes its recommendations.

Beamwright is bundled with Lightwright and is not sold separately.
