Director's Lights and Camera

This Camera and Lights tool is meant as a finesse lighting tool that offers lots of variety and customization in one simple setup.

Its main goal is to offer an intuitive and dynamic method to control lights.

Imagine you have your character in a scene and while there are environment lights around them, your subject is not being illuminated as you would like. Both photographers and movie directors know that ambient lights can only go so far when you have people on your scene who need to stand out. Additionally, custom lights are therefore necessary.

In our image creation, both for promotional and artistic purposes, we always focus on the character(s), so we created this tool for ourselves to have control over the lights around the characters.

We wanted something simple and accessible, but also practical and flexible. Director's Cam and light consists of 5 emissive panels half-dome linked to a camera that you use to see exactly where the lights are pointing.

It also features a helper cam that lets one check out the whole scene and fine-tune the panel's positioning.

Each panel can be managed independently so that it’s easy to create a setup as simple or as varied / complex as you want or need.
