Opportunity knocks, are you ready, lighting designer? The AIGC Lighting Design Workshop in Shanghai was a great success.

The second session of the AIGC Lighting Design Workshop was held from July 5th to 6th in Shanghai. This event was organized by the Asian Lighting Designers Association (AALD) and co-organized by Suzhou City Investment Lighting Development Co., Ltd., Zhejiang Chenghao Planning and Design Institute Co., Ltd., and Gao Ying Culture Media (Shanghai) Co., Ltd. Empowering lighting designers is our constant mission.

The workshop lasted for two days and attracted about 20 designers from the leading lighting companies in the East China region. It covered six modules, including AIGC knowledge lectures, from trend insights to AI tool practice, to optimize the entire workflow for lighting designers, aiming to advance their innovative thinking and practice efficient design. The course included deep learning on ChatGPT, Midjourney, and Stable Diffusion, exploring the collaborative application of the three tools to empower the entire workflow of lighting design projects with AI. After deep learning, designers deepened the application of AI in lighting design through practical operations and built their personal super IP and lighting workflow.

Regarding the successful holding of this workshop, Mr. Ma Bin, the Secretary-General of AALD, said after the event, "In this era of rapid technological development and constant change, we hope that this workshop will become a gateway for participants to explore the combination of 'light + AI'. In March this year, we held the first AIGC lighting design workshop in Asia. Following this AIGC Shanghai workshop, we will soon hold workshops in Beijing, Chengdu and other cities to explore the forefront of AI lighting design and help lighting designers optimize their workflow with AI tools. With the arrival of a new round of technological cycles, mastering AIGC is like holding the key to the future. We firmly believe that through continuous in-depth learning and practice, participants will be able to skillfully apply AIGC technology, thereby enhancing their personal competitiveness and possibly leading the trend of industry innovation."

Mr. Ma Bin presented a certificate to Mr. Yang Yun, the Shanghai Coordinator of AALD.

In this era of rapid technological development and a constantly changing world, with the arrival of a new round of technological cycles, mastering AI tools and AIGC, a new production force, is like obtaining the key to the future. Those designers who cannot advance with AI may become the first group of workers left behind by the tide of the times.
