Behind the scenes - Mitsubishi Electric commercial Lighting breakdown: We had multiple effects programmed and moved numerous fixtures at the same time during takes. The base effect consisted of 80 titan tubes individually jumping from 25% intensity to 100% intensity as the talent walked under the given tube. We had 2 COB led’s with softboxes as travelling keys for two talents, a dmx dimmed globe, anotger COB turning off when the bulb inside the globe turned on and all titan tubes dimming to base intensity. We removed a 6x6 neg from the floor during take, which has helped us to eliminate the reflection of the studio floor from the other side of the globe in the beginning of the take, but would be later visible in frame had it not been moved. We used multiple practicals on robots, in a car engine, under the car and at many different spots. A soon as the male lead passed the server room, we used a travelling 2x1 panel light with two Long Johns on a truss above the actress.

BTS of recent music video for @whos_kp Gaffer: @david_gaffer DP: @kosmalski_dp DIR: @justacoffemaker Gear: @gaffergrip.rental Lighting breakdown: The main moving element was a 2x1 panel light with softbox on a @matthewsgrip Max Menace Arm. This setup was constantly traveling above talent. A secondary traveling source was an COB with an octave on a wind-up stand. All the effects were controlled in real time with via console. . . . #filmmakersworld #filmmaking #behindthescenes #lighting #gaffer #setlife #filmlighting #filmmakers #filmmakerslife #warsaw #poland #makingof #lightingsetup #lightingbreakdown #learnlighting #cinematic #setlighting #dplife #doplife #makingmovies #lightscameraaction #directorofphotography

It’s SSI time! Do you often use SSI to match your fixtures to other „natural” sources? . . . #ssi #gaffer #filmmaking

When shooting music videos, having battery powered lights is key, as these projects are often more chaotic than commercials or features. On this set for @33mata ’s song „Up Up Up” we have used amongst others the @knowled_global MS60R’s and TP4R’s which sped up the process significantly. . . . #gaffer #filmmaking

[BTS + Final] Side by side view of a recent clip from ⚡️Gaffer: @david_gaffer DOP: @lukasz_skotnicki_dp Artist: @tgd_official ⚡️Gaffer’s Notes 👇 To speed up the lighting process we used crmx enabled fixtures for quick transitions between day and night shots. We blended toplights with smaller lights on stands to create wrap from the key side.

That’s a win for Hungary folks 🇭🇺 🔥 Even though I have lived in Poland for the last 5 years, Hungary gaining back democracy was very important to me and marks a big turning point for Hungary as well as the EU.
