I find the focused lighting in this photo very interesting as there are two lighting choices bringing the focus to the two speakers. First, we have the traditional spotlight on both of them, then we have background panels. These panels and the way that they are set up and designed make the eye lead down to the speakers as they all descend towards the pair till the center leads panel the eye directly to them.
I like the use of selective lighting in this setting because the viewer only sees the two people performing. I can tell that there are other people or performers off to the sides, but I do not notice them because the light brings the attention to the two people in the center. I think this picture shows how selective lighting can focus attention.
