In Vectorworks 2025, users can configure multi-circuit cabling with new settings, including circuit numbering and naming. The twofer configuration allows for easy selection and assignment to connectors. Fixtures are positioned on a truss for better visibility, and a pass-through capability enables daisy chaining lights. The system supports various numbering schemes and displays cable run IDs, ensuring flexibility and clarity in connections.

Join lighting designer Joshua
Benghiat as he takes you behind the scenes of the Broadway production of Our Town at the Barrymore
Theatre, directed by Kenny Leon and lit by Allen Lee Hughes.
Benghiat, associate lighting
designer for the production, will share his process for designing and executing
a complex lighting plan, balancing the team’s artistic vision with technical
precision. Learn how he tackled unique design challenges — such as hanging
lanterns, unconventional audience seating, and limited fixture placement —
while leveraging digital tools like Vectorworks and BeamViz for visualization
and pre-planning.
This session will highlight the
role of 3D modeling, visualization, and data visualization in streamlining the
lighting workflow, offering valuable insights for designers at all levels.
