In the room
Shape attention, preserve comfort, support the architecture, and let transitions happen without the lighting becoming the event.

Church stage lighting
for the room and the camera.
Lighting has two jobs now: make the room feel like worship and make the camera see faces. Qohr designs stage and house lighting that does both.
Camera exposure
The room and the camera must agree.
On camera
Balance level, angle, color temperature, contrast, and separation so skin tones stay believable and exposure remains consistent.
Lighting design and installation.
Start with what people and cameras need to see. Fixture output, optics, color quality, ceiling height, and throw distance shape the design. Access, power, mounting, controls, and equipment worth keeping shape the budget, not fixture count alone.
Key & fill light
Natural faces in the room and on camera, with angles and levels designed around the stage and shooting positions.
Color & backlight
Depth, separation, and atmosphere that support the moment without pulling attention away from it.
House lighting
Comfortable arrival light, focused worship scenes, cleaning light, and usable transitions across the room.
Fixtures & infrastructure
Output, optics, ceiling height, throw distance, power, data, rigging, access, and future serviceability resolved together.
Lighting for livestream
If faces look wrong, start with the light.
Orange, flat, or lost-in-haze faces are usually a lighting problem before they are a camera problem. We balance color temperature and levels across the stage, coordinating the camera and livestream system so exposure, color, and shot positions can be tested together.
Face level
Visible without flattening
Color quality
Natural, consistent skin tone
Separation
Depth from stage and background
Contrast
Range the camera can hold
Repeatable lighting scenes.
RGBW house lighting can move the room from bright welcome to focused worship through repeatable scenes. The full console is there when the team grows into it.
Welcome
House open / Stage ready
Worship
Stage focus / House low

Stage and house lighting.
MountainHouse’s stage and house fixtures share one control plan. Programmed scenes give volunteers a repeatable starting point, with console control for the production team. For lighting within a broader expansion, explore New Vintage’s AVL remodel.
