In the world of reflected light the dedolight Lightstream system is the most complete and the most versatile and it offers the greatest variety for the creative mind. Today we talk about one expansion and one addition to the Eflect - the word means effect and reflective light combined; it allows to create an incredible variety of effects. Eflect - it can be the most gentle accent like a floating feather in the background, like a butterfly that takes a rest for a little while, and it can go even to an explosion of effects on the background or sometimes, if you want, on the talent Today dedo...

Multiple dedolights set-up with parallel beam attachments, creating a visual spectacle which is majestic, mesmerising, compelling. dedolights are renowned for their clean beam, with no stray light. Within the beam totally homogeneous without hotspots. With the addition of the parallel beam intensifier this magnifies the light output up to 500% or more. This increased light output is very useful for the working with reflected light and the dedolight Lightstream system. From the smallest dedolight, the 8W Ledzilla, all the way to the focusable 1200W daylight HMI models, parallel beam intensifi...

Part 3 and the final of the series: dedolight PB70 a magical light, presented by Sean Boyriven, Dedolight California. Sean explains the benefits of working with the dedolight PB70 and dedolight Lighstream system, and how the the only way to really experience and understand the system is to get it in your hands and try it out: "It has just so many perks for our industry that it's hard to list them all. You have to let it speak for itself but you also have to try it out. You got to get it in your hands, you got to try it out because once you see it you get it, a sense of how special ...

With such a near parallel beam the light does not derive anymore from the light, the instrument. It is to be seen as a virtual light source from way behind the fixture. How do we define this? We elongate the outer rays of the beam backwards until they cross and that is where the virtual light source is active with the dedolight PB70 - this is between 6 and 20 meters behind the instrument. This enhances the distance from the effective light source to the object and thus it diminishes all the ill effects of the square law. When our actors move the change of intensity is less noticeable than w...

Presented by Sean Boyriven, Dedolight California. Sean demonstrates the dedolight PB70 using reflectors numbers 1 - 4 to show the different character of light which results from each of the reflectors.   The dedolight PB70 is the largest and most powerful of the parallel beam lights. The beam has an exit diameter of 70cm, 27.5 inches. This parallel beam light fixture can be used for the appearance of a natural light source, being far away by virtue of its character, and its over-ruling of the square law. For this reason, this light fixture has already been chosen for some major film pr...

Cinematographer, Dedo Weigert shows off Ledzilla, the smallest light in the dedo focussing range. Ledzilla is small enough to mount on-camera, yet powerful so this can be used with accessories such as: projector unit, Chinese lantern, soft box, light tube. This is an amazingly flexible and useful light which is useful to keep on-hand, particularly when travelling light. Lezilla draws 8w of power and can be run from Sony NPF style batteries for long periods. Essentially this provides a portable, powerful solution which can be easily expanded.

For precision lighting a serious contribution may be seen in the character and performance of the beam deriving from all the 23 different dedolight focusing lights. They all follow the clean beam concept. Jürgen Jürgess, a famous German DoP defined this many years ago. It allows me to reach far-away parts of the set without spilling light on the remainder of the set, without creating unwanted extra shadows. Of course, also the physical and emotionally perceived aspects of perfect light and color distribution with no hotspots, no color fringing can be seen as advantages. The incr...

Watch 13 part series at: https://tinyurl.com/3u8vpb7h It is not easy to define the virtues of the special character of the dedolight Lightstream system. One aspect would be that light in hard reflection is polarized and gives a different appearance to skin structure and skin tones, even when the color temperature is identical. But then, there is more to it that needs to be experienced by the eye of the seasoned DOP, or anybody who has the ability to 'see light'. Sounds like a joke, but it is absolutely true that even in our profession there are not many people that I have met who...

Jason and Jono from Reflectric, a company specialising in working with Reflected Light, demonstrate the dedolight DLH400DT HMI light.
