Abstract

Devices for creating stage effects and, more particularly, to mobile stage structures for theatrical productions are described. A mobile stage system comprises a device for creating an ambient light effect, stage decorations, curtains, and/or other accoutrements of a staged event, and a data carrier containing, in an encoded form, at least one master file including information about a set of scenes and actions, where each scene and action corresponds to a specific value of a time segment from a time reference point, and an executable file. Adaptable stage effects are produced on the basis of changing external factors, inter alia, on the basis of artificial intelligence (AI) technology.
