The final lighting system was fully built with Clay Paky material: 50 Alpha Spot HPE 1200, Stage Color 1200 and Alpha Beam 300. Photography director Massimiliano Cavenaghi stated, "I mainly used effects and spot lights on the public and backlighting for the girls' performances. The nature of the show favoured close-ups on the 'Veline' so we had few wide angles. Consequently, stage lighting needed to be white and restricted."
The Alpha Beam 300s were placed along the edge of the runway that led from the stage to the public and underlined the switches between the various performances. "They are the new millennium ACLs and I think they will soon become irreplaceable, especially for both studio and open air music shows, continued Cavenaghi.
