about the project

Commercial shoot for a digital wallet company. Pre rig and a shoot day. Shot in a NYC backlot, we lit 3 interior sets and 1 exterior set. Interior consisted of hanging a pipe grid from overhead beams with 1/3 ton motors. Art attached practicals and set lighting hung units. Moving light gag outside for a lighting effect. 3 doorway dollies with T12’s ran a 40’ length of track and pushed by the grip department. Interior auction house was a complete art transformation. Flowy curtains and a custom build circular platform brought the place to life and provided a nice canvas for gaffer Dimitri to light against. Night exterior was a set lighting show. They wired up dozens of street lamps & wall sconces and illuminated each window in the facade. Main exterior push was a 12x12 moonbox with 4x Skypanel S60’s in it with 1/4 grid. Collective Camera Cranes swung around the Scorpio 45’ with the matrix head.
