Lighting systems adapted for cinema by ELC
Image and video capture professionals know that lighting is a key factor in the creation of high-quality video content. Unfortunately, it's not always easy to shoot in favorable conditions with good lighting to create quality cinematic content, or simply to organize a shoot and facilitate the work of audiovisual production. Are you looking for cinema lighting solutions to create the right atmosphere for your shots, or simply to illuminate movie sets and related areas? ELC France, specialist and manufacturer of innovative lighting solutions, offers all audiovisual production companies lighting systems adapted for cinema.
Lighting in cinema: an essential component of the shooting process
Whether you're shooting a music video, a corporate video, an advertisement, a small independent film or a major motion picture, lighting is an essential component in creating beautiful audiovisual content! A film cannot be made without taking lighting into account: it gives texture, charm and even soul to a film. A simple excerpt from a video can sometimes reveal the "director's touch" in the lighting used. Light effects can be used to explain, suggest, draw the audience's attention or show an important element without words. Light adds subtlety and helps convey mood and emotion.
However, without excellent lighting at the time of shooting, digital retouching will be impossible. So, to accentuate emotions, give depth to scenes and animate the film in its entirety, light is not an accessory. Beyond the technical aspect, this work on light is often more art than anything else, and contributes to the very essence of the film.

Lighting up production sets and backstage areas
If you don't use these solutions for filming (sometimes considered too strong for cinema), they often allow you to light the set, in more difficult conditions and more remote locations. Dozens of technicians, prop-makers, set designers and make-up artists, to name but a few, often work in the actors' shadows. In the shadows, but not in the dark. They need to be able to rely on a sufficient source of light to carry out their tasks and contribute to the final production.
How can a stage manager manage equipment and logistics without light? Even in the middle of the night, or in a large space without light, LUMAPHORE® will facilitate the work of technicians, stage managers and engineers on a shoot. Installed close to the set, backstage, in a parking lot or storage area, it provides intense light that spreads widely and evenly to put film professionals in the best possible conditions.
