Commercial: no budget for crane, so using @thelightbridge No.4 with @fiilexled Q10 to bounce get a high enough for a moonlight-like. Got 2 @creamsource #creamsourcemicrocolour one for 3/4 back light on 2200K & one more of a side like with @dopchoice #snapbags #snapgrids to control area of lighting (guess no one like to see those air con machine in frame. Got 3 x #fiilexp3color in the background for reflection, which separate product from wet floor. Finally, few @asteraofficial tubes for outlining the products. Done! First time using Q10 on field, it’s a powerful fixture allow spot & flood, and with build in CRMX antenna allow any color changes mobile. By the way @fiilexled Q10 is IP-X5 rated. I just forgot and got nervous to waterproof it, clearly Not needed.

Testing: @fiilexled #fiilexq10 just astonish as all fixtures in product line. A bit heavy, maybe just a tad less than M40. Output & colour just beautiful.

Commercial: sometime you have just this idea that get you playful… this is one of them, it’s just a simple warehouse location on the top floor, i thought metal structure like beam & pillars could be interesting element to embrace. But due to not many hanging positions, by placing tubes on the floor seem… a bit tedious , which means all luminous are about ground up. Put in a 18cm round truss with LED neon strip, not bad looking I would say from the budget is given. Stage & background tube are done with ASTERA TITAN & AX1. Centre 8 by Full Grid with 2 x @litepanels Gemini 21 with @honeycrates to control. Ceiling is lit by 8 @astera #pixelbrick in red to show metal element. Key lights are 2 x @fiilexled P3 & Q8 Connect to @exalux DP @bai_jie_li Gaffer @hu_wei_gaffer #taiwan #filmmaker #gaffer #gafferlife #filmlights #filmmakers #behindthescenes #cinematic #cinematography🎥 #filmmaking #setlighting #filmset #onset🎥🎬 #setlightingelectricians #lightingsetup #lightingtechnician #lightingtech #gripandelectric #musicvideo #filmcrew #rental #commercial #filmproduction (at New Taipei City) https://www.instagram.com/p/CdFoKdnPm6A/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Short Day 2. My DP is giving me a load of pressure….. 攝影指導給的壓力好大⋯⋯ (at New Taipei City) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cb4_5lDvn0P/?utm_medium=tumblr

Commercial: Brilliant Team & Artists. Script idea is warming. By the way, Dp is an old friend, but sure he got the firmest butt… not that I care, just saying. @creamsource #vortex8 bounce on 12 by unbleached muslin, a @litepanels #litepanelgemini with louver for a bit edge. Got 3 @fiilexled #p3color in cyan-blue to give ambiant a bit of color. #gaffer #filmmakers #behindthescenes #cinematic #cinematography🎥 #filmmaking #setlighting #filmset #onset🎥🎬 #setlightingelectricians #gafferlife #lightingsetup #lightingtechnician #lightingtech #gripandelectric #musicvideo #filmcrew #rental #commercial #filmproduction (at 西門町商圈>>>>>) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cb2ZvUQPLv-/?utm_medium=tumblr

Short Day 1. I’m a big fan of @leefilters cosmetics series, probably got 2 roll each from 184-191 However don’t have chance to use it as much. Just somehow that tint of color & softness that is so subtle yet blending all lights together. Got a @arri m40 + No Color Straw for direct light & @thelightbridge to mirror into room set. #arrim18 with #leecosmetics emerald (my favorite cosmetic No.) But is it discontinued? #gaffer #filmmakers #behindthescenes #cinematic #cinematography🎥 #filmmaking #setlighting #filmset #onset🎥🎬 #setlightingelectricians #gafferlife #lightingsetup #lightingtechnician #lightingtech #gripandelectric #musicvideo #filmcrew #rental #commercial #filmproduction (at New Taipei City) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cb1_p0IPBp2/?utm_medium=tumblr

Commercial: Almost forgotten this one. It’s at very early stage of getting @fiilexled Q8. First time I thought Fiilex Fresnel LED can actually replace traditional fresnel fixture; of course not completely. Got Hudson spider with Silver Umbrella really is a savior for beauty lighting. All product shots are done with Q5, Q8 for sure. Vividly remember I forgot a M40 ballast…. But got it just before needed.

Commercial: a small studio shoot. All I was trying to do was taking a photo that make DP’s legs look long! I did it. Build a 4’ by 20’ by 2’ depth with #asterahyperion in it. And #litepanelgemini through #honeycrates 8 by and dome tubes & #fiilexq8 by the window. Remember my best boy as if the spill hit the top soft box matters. I looked at it, see flag of #ukraine And said: it’s fine, not a big deal. #gaffer #drama #filmmakers #film #behindthescenes #cinematic #cinematography🎥 #filmmaking #setlighting #filming #filmset #onset🎥🎬 #setlightingelectricians #gafferlife #lightingsetup #lightingtechnician #lightingtech #gripandelectric #musicvideo #filmcrew #rental #commercial #filmproduction https://www.instagram.com/p/Cbh4xQnPlHV/?utm_medium=tumblr

Commercial: location & arts are great! Got #quadcolor as most of the key light & #asteratitan + #honeycratesbabybee or #snapbox to fill & prop lights. There is a scene with motorbike; had a #bbscbl1 as spot, man! Its dame powerful spot, the fresnel at front really kill the edge of light, very pleasing. For the moving light, have a #arrim40 on #thelightbridge C-100.

New Warehouse: Not too bad. Now.. just need to get a quote from vendor. I’m not afraid, im fucking terrified…. 倉庫重新規劃配置，再來就是Truss價格了⋯ 我這個月肝指數應該有降，價格會好一點吧⋯ #taiwan #taipei #hu_wei_gaffer #visionary_creature_tw #newwarehouse #truss (at New Taipei City) https://www.instagram.com/p/CbT0JnGPHBV/?utm_medium=tumblr

Warehouse on the move, since the place is rented, thought would be a much economical idea to build first floor out of aluminum truss. At least can be dismantled if ever have to move again (hopefully not…) However, to work out length of each structure pieces is HELL! Is like Lego only but doesn’t necessarily fit together (yap, that would be catastrophe…) AND to make sure the loading is safe… Fuck… I need a mathematician.. At least the weather & views are gorgeous and the coffee is great.. #taiwan #taipei #lifeonset (at 北門﹣承恩門) https://www.instagram.com/p/CbR1XTCPLIT/?utm_medium=tumblr
