A previz (previsualization) studio is a professional programming space where lighting designers and programmers can create, test, and refine lighting designs before arriving at the venue. Using consoles, visualization software, and 3D modeling tools, designers can see exactly how their show will look, program cues, and troubleshoot issues in a comfortable, distraction-free environment.
