Benefits and Challenges of Using AI for Light Design in Theatre Productions, In Theatre Arts Department, University of Uyo
Abstract
This paper identifies the benefits and changes of Artificial Intelligence, and the integration of AI in light design for theatre productions in the Department of Theatre Arts, University of Uyo. The study adopts the mixed methods approach to investigate the benefits and challenges of AI in theatre productions; hence, data was collected through surveys, interviews, and observational studies of lighting design processes. However, the study acknowledges that AI can significantly enhance theatrical productions, but a potential downside of AI integration is its possible stifling of human creativity and displacement of job for creatives. Findings reveal that, there is awareness and understanding of AI, but it further shows that there is significant gap in practical understanding of how it works. The study recommends education and training programs for practitioners to bridge the knowledge gap and improve AI adoption; it also recommends policy development to help govern the ethical use of AI in theater production. Ultimately, the study offers theatre practitioners insights into optimizing AI use in theatre lighting design.
