For many years we used incandescent lighting fixtures to
light video shoots. They used lots
of power, blew circuits, generated lots of heat, and made extra work for the
make up artist who had to constantly mop sweaty brows.
Once again, technology helps make life a little easier with
the advent of LED lighting. They draw such little power that you can battery
power them and there is no heat.
Best of all, they create a soft nice lighting for interviews, something
we do ALOT of.
We use a FloLite 1 x 1 panel which is perfect for an
interview setting http://www.flolight.com/led-lighting/microbeam-1024-high-powered-led-video-light.html we put a chimera on ours and use a
low-power back light and bada bing…you have a beautiful soft natural lighting
source.
David and Kathryn Seay are video producers in the Dallas
Fort Worth area.
