Par-64 Question

It Depends on the bulb/reflector used in them but normally the bigger the par can the farther the throw/narrower the angle. I like the "Uni-par I think is what they call it." you can change the lens to change the beam spread REALLY bright too. 575 W halogen bulb W/ polished reflector. They are fairly compact compared to a P-64. You can always dim them down
YEAHHH BUDDY
For a small stage short throw, 46's or maybe even 38's will do you. .

beam angle is how wide the spread of the Par. we have them available in narow medium and wide. The choice depends on how far away the subject is, and how wide the coverage is needed.

ok thanks...but about the angle, mabey i wasn't clear...i meant to ask if you know how large the coverage area is dependant on the distace the light is away...for example:
When light is 10 feet from target-coverage area is 5 feet in diameter
When light is 20 feet from target-coverage area is 10 feet in diameter
ect.
do you know this ratio? or is it something i'd have to find out for myself
thanks

let me add-
i want to mix 4 diferent colors to make color washes on stage...my plan is to have a total of 8 lights on two T-bar stands. i want the two stands to be infront and to either side of the stage(15-20 feet from the stage)

|--------| X
| S |
| T |
| A |
| G |
|_____E__| X

(X=T-bar stand)


then i wanted to have four of the inside lights be no color lights that i can dim...no worries about the controller i have that all figured out...then i want the 4 most outside lights to be 4 different colors...green, blue, red, yellow...i want to be chase, mix, dim, and slowly strobe these. sonce there is only one of each color i need each one to cover the entire stage...this is why i would like to know how large of an area they cover.
any help on what light would work best for me would be helpful

grrr...all the spaces got taked out of my drawing...now it looks stupid!

So You want all the par cans to cover all of the stage. In that case you need Wide and it might not cover all the stage.

ok good point...thanks a lot
