How does an LED lion work?

The LED lion is stitched with lights that shift through colours: reds, golds, greens, and electric blues. As the performers move, every blink, shake, and leap is traced in light. In a darkened room or open-air venue, the effect is dramatic.

Underneath the lights, the performance stays true to tradition. The stances stay low, the head and tail performers work as one, the drum leads every move, and the lion still plucks the greens (采青) at the finale.

What do you need for an LED lion performance?

• Lighting control. The effect is strongest when house lights can be dimmed.
• Space. A clear floor area for the lion to move and for 采青.
• Timing. Evening slots, or indoor venues where the lights can go down.
• Power and staging details, if you want the lion paired with stage lighting or effects.
