"I've got soul, but I'm not a soldier. I've got ham, but I'm not a hamster." Take some time to be grateful that there are charged electrons flowing through our lights, diesel fuel autoigniting in our generators, and gravity to keep all of us grounded.

"What is sauce for the goose is sauce for the gander." Marcus Terentius Varro CG23 Holiday Campaign BTS Shots. Pleased to have lit this alongside my favorite crew in the world. Big thanks to @hammerheadlights for coming out in force to light the blue screen. I've never seen so many lamps go up so fast. Their light weight construction and multiple lamps per ballast really makes these things a dream to rig. Putting in the power elsewhere is X3 softboxes on booms, powered by Vortex 8's doing pixel mapped effects. A few 12k's as backlights, my MAC TW1's as architectural lights and a 24k key finished off the job. Of yeah, and 30+ 100w bulbs, Titans and MC's finished off the window lighting on the miniature set.
