A camera input is to receive a camera stream from a camera arranged for viewing on the performance environment, and a display output is to output a display stream. A controller is configured to: obtain a camera placement of the camera relative to the performance environment, obtain a camera orientation of the camera relative to the performance environment obtain a directable light bundle generator placement of the directable light bundle generator relative to the performance environment, obtain a directable light bundle generator orientation of the directable light bundle generator relative to the performance environment, receive the camera stream from the camera input, obtain the tracked location, calculate a 2D projection of the light bundle at the tracked location based on the tracked location, the camera placement, the camera orientation, the directable light bundle generator placement and the directable light bundle generator orientation, insert a light bundle indicator for indicating the 2D projection of the light bundle in the camera stream for generating the display stream, and provide the display stream to the display output.
