I’ve explained this before but I’ll chime in here and explain it again. Spotlights like these used for filming get hot (temperature wise) as well as having the ability to focus the beam. The lights heat will fall off but a focused beam will retain more of its energy. Now, some movie makeup has built in SPF. Stage makeup definitely has some. On stage, you’ll often see fans blowing to keep people cool or they will use diffused lighting and not spotlights which don’t generate so much heat.
Spotlights like these though, you might as well be holding a giant magnifying glass. The beam is culminated and will cook whatever it’s pointing at. Will it cook a human? Yes if you stand there, still, for long enough. You will definitely get sun burned. If you get within 10 feet it will feel like your standing in an oven. Within 5 feet and your skin could boil.
