Abstract: High temperatures on sets increase production costs. The use of heat-control coatings in Fresnel lens spotlamps can reduce set heat due to lighting by at least 50%. Modifications of spotlamps to achieve this result are described. These make it possible to aim most of the infrared rays away from the set toward the roof or upper walls of a stage where heat is more easily removed. The diversion of infrared radiation in this manner reduces set temperatures and increases the comfort of actors and crew.
