This publication evaluates two basic lighting strategies for multimedia auditoriums, which support many activities in schools and other venues. The project also demonstrates how these basic strategies might need to be modified to meet a number of lighting objectives: rendering speakers' facial features in a flattering manner, making the space look pleasant, providing illumination for audience members to read and take notes and for speakers to see their audiences, and minimizing illuminance and reflections on projection screens and monitors.
