          Application 09/079,054                                                       
          including options which can be effected on the selected lighting             
          device, and providing a selectable list of said options which can            
          be effected, and allowing selection of one of said options for               
          control.                                                                     
          14. A method of developing a dynamic lighting display using a                
          virtual reality simulation comprising:                                       
               displaying a simulated view of a plurality of lighting                  
          devices that are generating a display of a simulated three-                  
          dimensional lighting display in a two dimensional display so as              
          to simulate lighting effects in three dimensional space;                     
               storing information for said lighting devices, said                     
          information including a list of adjustments of said lighting                 
          devices that can be controlled;                                              
               selecting, by the user, one of the lighting devices for                 
          modification in said simulated three dimensional space by means              
          of three dimensional motion;                                                 
               determining, using said information stored in said storing              
          information, and displaying a list of all adjustments that can be            
          controlled in said one of the lighting devices, responsive to                
          said selecting;                                                              
               detecting that an adjustment from said list has been                    
          selected; and                                                                
               adjusting the lighting device as so selected.                           
          18.  A virtual reality stage lighting control element,                       
          comprising:                                                                  
               a database, storing information indicative of three-                    
          dimensional information related to stage lighting and                        
          characteristics of specific lights;                                          
               a virtual reality interface, including a display device and             
          an input device, operating to simulate three dimensional effect              
          based on said three dimensional information, and to allow input              
          of information using a three dimensional interface, said                     
          information changing information in said database, and said                  
          interface including a user interface production element,                     
                                          3
