Lighting, Light Fixtures, Ceiling and Exhaust Fans - Track or Recessed in Home Theater

Hello, I am not sure whether to use track, reecessed, or both
in my basement home theater. I like track, because i have the
flexibility, but i don't know what i really want to do. Thanks.

Wall sconces are great for low lights in a theatre. Lighting selection will be determined by what other uses the room will have. If it's a dedicated theater room, then you may want to reconsider track lighting if there is no need to accent art or other objects or to light a particular area. If ceiling is low, larger track lights can be obstrusive. Track lighting is not intended for general lighting. The downside of recessed lights is cutting holes in the ceiling. Airtight models help with passage of heat and humidity from room and you will need lights rated for use with insulation if there is insulation in ceiling. Recessed lighting is also used for accenting and task lighting. You may want to opt for wall sconces, table lamps, and an attractive overhead light for general lighting. And, of course, you will want light controls that allow you to bring the lights down like at the movie theater.
