20160131962 | ELECTRICALLY ADJUSTABLE OPTICAL DIFFUSION FOR LUMINAIRES - Diffusing light illuminating a light target or subject of a film or video production including placing a diffusion panel between a light source and a light target, energizing said light source so as to direct light therefrom through the diffusion panel, and electrically adjusting the transparency of the diffusion panel by changing an electric potential applied to electrodes of the diffusion panel. The electrically adjustable diffusion panel eliminates the need for manually changing diffusion papers or other filters and provides a continuous range of selectable levels of transparency/diffusion. | 05-12-2016 |
20140313744 | LED FRESNEL LIGHTING INSTRUMENT - A Fresnel lighting instrument for use in film and video production, having a LED light engine mounted to a heat sink defining a first plane, a dual basket type focusing assembly adapted to longitudinally extend or retract a Fresnel lens away from and back to the first plane substantially without rotation along the longitudinal range of extension, to provide a fanless, cool operating, highly compact and lightweight Fresnel light suitable for studio or field use. The dual basket type design allows for transporting three Fresnel units in a standard milk crate since the unit collapses down whereas existing Fresnel lights all use a constant volume can-shaped housing within which the light source is repositioned. | 10-23-2014 |
20130099669 | LIGHTING SYSTEM FOR USE IN MOTION PICTURE AND VIDEO PRODUCTION - A method of lighting especially suited for use in motion picture and video production including, in various embodiments, the steps: providing lighting modules, each having one or more manual controls for controlling light output characteristics such as the intensity and hue of light produced and each capable of wirelessly communicating with other lighting modules over a wireless data network; interconnecting the lighting modules on the wireless data network; and adjusting the light produced by all lighting modules through adjustments using any one of the networked lighting modules. | 04-25-2013 |
20120262655 | ELECTRICALLY ADJUSTABLE OPTICAL DIFFUSION FOR LUMINAIRES - An electrically adjustable optical diffusion panel for use in film or video production having a frame, diffusion material affixed to the frame, where the transparency of the material is continuously and variably changeable between a substantially transparent state and a substantially opaque state in response to an electric potential applied to electrodes of the material and a controller and battery. The electrically adjustable diffusion panel eliminates the need for manually changing diffusion papers or other filters and provides a continuous range of selectable levels of transparency/diffusion. | 10-18-2012 |
20120262088 | LIGHTING SYSTEM FOR USE IN MOTION PICTURE AND VIDEO PRODUCTION - A method of lighting for use in motion picture and video production including, in various embodiments, the steps: providing lighting modules, each having one or more manual controls for controlling light output characteristics such as the intensity and hue of light produced and each capable of wirelessly communicating with other lighting modules over a wireless data network; interconnecting the lighting modules on the wireless data network; and adjusting the light produced by all lighting modules through adjustments using any one of the networked lighting modules. | 10-18-2012 |
