In total there were 3x 30s-spots of which two of them were located inside a Kia EV3 parked on a parking lot infront of LEC Arena.
The challenge for this was to build something outside (hell yeah windโฆ) yet simple and flexible enough to have control over ever-changing lighting conditions (cloudy sun) - but also taking care of reflections/ being ready for windshield shots. โ> taking control ๐ก
I pre-lit everything within @elixxiersoftware to see which minimum size frame Iโd need to fly overhead and with certain focal lengths in mind. Since this software is photometrically correct I could also realistically light it with the lightโs I planned on using. I also got to test V3 Beta where the options are endless so I utilized HDRI Maps for more realistic planning, also with reflections - which was super helpful for this scenario.
I played around with different looks and decided to go with an Ultrabounce (white side down) as the overhead since it entirely blocked the sun, also wouldnโt soak up too much in case of rain. And since the car wasnโt moving in the scene I also dropped the idea of going with Black Scrim (where you still see overhead reflections passing byโฆ like trees/branches).
White side down? I tested it and it looked better than black side down because black felt more present.
Skypanel S360 as key with some help of an 8โx12โ Ultrabounce - which really helped with more punch in case of the sun coming outโฆ keeping it proportionally ๐ค๐ฝ
Two T5โs as rim and a 12K Dino for background extension on the reverse shot.

Shooting a commercial in a bus was a first! ๐
Lighting big window fronts can be challenging especially with limited resources.
But thatโs why (generally) recces are important in order to make a solid game plan.
Slide 2๏ธโฃ: Sun position/cylce of shooting day
โ๏ธ DP wanted to go with a hard afternoon sunlight look for this one.
Slide3๏ธโฃ: I originally thought about building a truss build on two stands with a 12x20 topper to extend/cast shadow and place a couple fixtures beneath it to cover the window front.
Which I think wouldโve worked flawlessly also with "hidingโ your setup on camera.
โ> but we didnโt have the capacity to do so.
Lacationโs roof helped with broadly blocking the sun, creating some shade which enabled us to go with smaller fixtures, too.
Setup on Slide 1๏ธโฃ:
We were shooting in the back of the bus later due to sun positioning.
3x similar in output fixtures on the side acted as our sun. Sun into CRLS-100 DIFF2 for fill on the ceiling in the bus (especially for wider shots)
20โx20โ Black Art. Silk 1/4 to take some edge of the sun coming through the front. (not the best for this purpose but worked fine. also being a net/black silk helped with wind in that case)
Slide 4๏ธโฃ: On this push-in shot the sun was backlighting the bus, except it didnโt entirely due to the roof. Thatโs why I added a Evoke 1200 as a controlled sun/backlight on our favored position. Sun again into CRLS-100 DIFF1 creating a nice harsh sunlight on our Bus Driverโs body.
This and an old italian 4K HMI Fresnel pushing into a 12โ Art. Silk for a nice big and soft fill.
which was also acting as a bounce too once the sun was out.
โ> giving us that nice SOFHOB look (soft on face, hard on body)
Some Solid T-Bone to give it some shape, and we were running everything off a 15kVA Diesel Generator.

โ> giving us that nice SOFHOB look (soft on face, hard on body)
Some Solid T-Bone to give it some shape, and we were running everything off a 15kVA Diesel Generator.

Stop guessing your light levels.โจHereโs the tool I use to know exactly what Iโll get.โจConfidence > assumptions.โจ๐ Bonus tip + discount inside.
โ
I use @lightcalc.io to figure out whether a specific light is strong enough for my setup โ before even stepping on set.
In this case, I wanted to go for a sunset look using a 12K Tungsten Dino.โจThe light needed to:โจA) overpower ambient on a cloudy dayโจB) still enough output on the subject at 10 meters distance
โ
LightCalc helped me run the numbers โ and it worked. Spot on.
๐ Bonus Tip:โจI like to take ambient readings during tech scouts (inside buildings etc.) so I can input real values and get more accurate results in LightCalc.
๐ก You donโt always need to guess or rely on gut feeling โ especially in new or high-pressure setups. This gives you confidence and helps justify the gear you actually need.
๐งฎ LightCalc is a one-time purchase โ just 39โฌโจ๐ Use my code โJAREDโ for 25% off :)

For this intro scene of NEO TENIA (feature film concept) We only used 2 lights.
โ> Coverage with lots of wide angle shots challenged the lighting / or forced us to keep it simple, besides budged.
Exterior:
A 12K Maxi Brute/Dino or actually 10K for that shot because 2 bulbs went down (we shot this opener last)
and an Arri M40 HMI bulbed with a 2.5K globe for the front/ first bit of the dolly tracks (12K Dino extension) Through some 1/2 CTO and 1/2 CTS + 1/2 White Diff (LEE 250) to match the 12K tungsten.
interior: 12K Dino thru big window on easy lift (~6m) and 1K Baby to extend where the 12K couldnโt hit.
No more than a 4x4 solid floppy for the close up.
The final setup seams simple - which it is but planning was key to get the most bang for the buck and also for having the best fixture for this huge window.
I preferred the 12K over any HMI. Maximum we could do power-wise was M90 with a 6K globe. (We had 32A & 16A three-phase on location)
We were planning to go warmer in color temperature anyway, since we wanted a โlower-standing sunโ look - and tungsten is so cheap and โplug and playโ compared to HMIs. (this project was super low-budged)
So in the end, I just needed to figure out and calculate whether a 12K would be bright enough to overpower the ambient light.
With the help of @lightcalc.io I was able to quickly decide on what fixture would do the job.
Of course all of that was dependent on the type of weather. But I was going all-in on overcast ambience, based on weather forecast. Plus it was winter so I had high hopes.

You would want this for every project but for this tv-commercial in particular it was key to have consistent lighting. Meaning weather changes (sun, clouds, rain, snow) shouldnโt affect your lighting. Especially since this was shot in January.
Throughout the first day of production it was sunny, cloudy, rained and snowed towards wrap.
1) I was utilizing two @aputure.lighting LS 1200D/Storm 1200X into an 8x8 Ultrabounce to give consistent ambient levels through the sheers. Additionally a CRLS 50 #2 for some punch extension onto sheers on the side.
Sunny side of the 'sunroom' was blocked with solid /duvetyne as well as the top.
A @nanlux_global 2400B for the sunny punch also giving her a nice edge light, but with an open end art. silk in between to keep the hard light on the background but softer on her.
Two F22Cโs as a key+wrap on a D650 Junior Boom.
Infinibar PB12 as a light rim/background seperation.
Infinibar PB6 into a small bounce board to lift the package/box. And some more solid inside to kill the spill.
5+6) Bonus: Days are short in January. Keeping the lighting consistent for the โบoffice shotโน.
7+8) Night for Day with some morning sun (waking-up shot)

You would want this for every project but for this tv-commercial in particular it was key to have consistent lighting. Meaning weather changes (sun, clouds, rain, snow) shouldnโt affect your lighting. Especially since this was shot in January.
Throughout the first day of production it was sunny, cloudy, rained and snowed towards wrap.
1) I was utilizing two @aputure.lighting LS 1200D/Storm 1200X into an 8x8 Ultrabounce to give consistent ambient levels through the sheers. Additionally a CRLS 50 #2 for some punch extension onto sheers on the side.
Sunny side of the 'sunroom' was blocked with solid /duvetyne as well as the top.
A @nanlux_global 2400B for the sunny punch also giving her a nice edge light, but with an open end art. silk in between to keep the hard light on the background but softer on her.
Two F22Cโs as a key+wrap on a D650 Junior Boom.
Infinibar PB12 as a light rim/background seperation.
Infinibar PB6 into a small bounce board to lift the package/box. And some more solid inside to kill the spill.

Iโm a big fan of CRLS, but theyโre not always the best choice for lighting a scene. Iโve been guilty using them unnecessarily - overcomplicating a setup for only a minor improvement. Not with this one though.
The goal was to create sunlight, highlighting the girl during a pregnancy conflict counseling sessionโvisually reflecting the emotional weight of her decisionโwhile keeping the counselor more in shadow.
The scene was set in a raised ground floor office, and since the budget and logistics didnโt allow for a condor or big stands like a @Avenger Long John Silver (which wouldโve safely reached the height), we had to find another way.โจThatโs where the @thelightbridge C-100s came in - on wind-ups at about 4m, just reaching top window height. Keeping fixtures on floor stands and aiming them up, got us the right angle thanks to physics. Plus it kept the footprint of the setup narrow so we didnโt need to shut down the plaza.
The first window was used as our key: an @arri D25 paired with an @aputure.lighting 1200D. Both into a C-100 DIFF1, which combined and blurred them into one source - essentially doubling the output - and gave us a wider spread and beam angle (something you tend to lose when bouncing into a relatively small, distant square), while still packing enough punch.โจOn the other window we had roughly half the output - 2x @Arri D12 - same setup, pushing โsunlightโ through the background window.
From there, we only needed to shape the light for close-ups: some neg, and I think a ยผ White Diffusion to take the edge off on her coverage.โจFor the reverse, besides the natural bounce off a prop document on the desk, just a bounce board to wrap the light.
Slide 5+6: A โNight for Dayโ. Next time Iโll fix the double shadow though ๐ฅฒโจSlide 7: BonusโจSlide 8: DP with his signature angle

// My favorite project of past year! Got to shoot in a to me very familiar area of Catalonia, Spain.๐
Stills and lighting set up of each, also including some behind the scenes photos. Some shots were nice and easy just lit with sun and bounces some others required to block the current sun to create our own lighting direction to be able to shoot in that tight schedule. On the last day (first 2 slides) it was raining. All in all the setups turned out exactly how Iโve had planned them. Just adapted to different blocking or weather conditions.

Leviโs - True Love Begins With An Old Jeans (Commercial)
// My favorite project of past year! Got to shoot in a to me very familiar area of Catalonia, Spain.๐
Stills and lighting set up of each, also including some behind the scenes photos. Some shots were nice and easy just lit with sun and bounces some others required to block the current sun to create our own lighting direction to be able to shoot in that tight schedule. On the last day (first 2 slides) it was raining. All in all the setups turned out exactly how Iโve had planned them. Just adapted to different blocking or weather conditions.
Let me know what you think of these breakdowns!
