Every 10 years or so there is a software program that changes the way we use personal computers. The first wave took place over 20 years ago with the advent of word processors and spreadsheets. The next major change came with drafting programs like AutoCAD® and graphics/image processing software such as Adobe Photoshop® and its suite of related products. ESP Vision is an advanced lighting pre-visualization program that can take your creative design process to the next level, enabling lighting designers to create and run dynamic light cues before setting foot into a performance venue or beginning a technical rehearsal. This software will get your heart pounding, stimulate your imagination and make you eager to put your lighting designs on the stage. According to Alan "AJ" Jess, director of marketing, "ESP Vision is the most technologically advanced lighting pre-visualization software available on the planet." I tend to agree with him, especially considering the expressions of amazement on the faces of lighting designers in our computer lab once they saw the program in action.
