The skilled designers and technicians at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.lightingandsoundco.com\">The Lighting &amp; Sound Co<\/a> can customize the output of some lighting fixtures to project a pattern of light. This element is often referred to as a &#8220;gobo,&#8221; though it&#8217;s also called a template, light pattern, or texture. Gobos can be created from nearly any design, and most flat surfaces are a great place to display a gobo.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-family: Tahoma, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;\">Monogram Gobos<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Tahoma, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;\">Perhaps our most popular <a href=\"https:\/\/lightingandsoundco.com\/services\/#gobos\">gobo service<\/a> is a custom wedding gobo, often including a monogram. These designs can be chosen from our catalog of custom layouts and fonts, or provided from client artwork.
