It's an Honor for Briese

The Briese 140 has been in action once again. Ed Moore, DoP, needed a certain light to do a specific job and tells us why he used the Briese 140:

"This shoot was for a national TV advert featuring Honor Blackman. I needed a very flattering, powerful key light that would enable me to balance interior levels against a large set of windows with the minimum of NDing required. The Briese Focus 140 was the perfect tool for the job - it has an extremely effective reflector which coupled with the 2.5KW HMI lamp provided ample amounts of light... but more to the point the design of the unit and its diffusion produced a very lovely quality of light that worked fantastically.  The size of the 140 was a perfect match for a seated subject a few meters away."

It's a Briese...Lighting Boy Band, JLS

Recently shot on the banks of the River Thames, the latest JLS music video was lit on the south bank near London Bridge by Briese Lighting's 140.

August Jakobsson , DoP, used the Briese as it was the ideal large soft directional beauty light - it was easy to move and rig on a mega boom and created a beautiful soft pool of light wrapping around the 4 singers.
