If Creative ideas on reliable technology Meeting, emerge pictures that are remembered. This is exactly what the photographer and content creator has Michael Kuschei proven in a very special project: a nightly Photo shoot on an illuminated SUP board, deep in a remote canyon. The vision was clear - a game off Light and shadow in complete darkness that the calm of nature with the energy of more modern Lighting technology connected.
The light composition: subtle instead of bright
The shoot was implemented exclusively with our Lux-permanent lights. The challenge was to make the model and the environment visible without the nocturnal mood to destroy. It shouldn't work day hell, but mysteriously glow - with subtle contrasts, soft contours and targeted color accents.
Michael placed for the main light Lux Bi-Color 100W on one C6i-tripod Directly in the water. The Battery grip with 99Wh Capacity was mounted directly on the tripod - a stable, mobile solution that proved itself in rough terrain. The light was set to only 25 percent performance to a Gentle backlight effect To achieve that the model dipped in a fine silhouette.
The setup was supplemented by the Lux RGB 60WThat was on a small embankment. It set targeted Color accents and ensured atmospheric nuances - also operated with only 25 percent performance a light Power bank . Both lamps were controlled comfortably by Smartphone app - Ideal for spontaneous adjustments during the shoot.
Light hits the atmosphere: the moment in the canyon
The moment when the model slid through the canyon on the SUP, while Michael photographed from a small river island magical. The combination of natural environment, targeted light and deep darkness almost worked surreal. Smalls provided an additional atmosphere Torch. The first did not ignite the first one, but created a beautiful, flicker Candle flamethat gently modeled the model. The second torch then brought the desired effect: poet smoke lay like fog over the water and turned the scene into a mystical dream landscape.
Between goosebumps and embers
A smaller Momentary moment was not long in coming. Sparks The torch hit the SUP board and caused three small ones Fire holes. The air began to escape slowly. Fortunately, the most important pictures were already in the box at this time. The model, now a little frozen, was brought back to the bank, while Michael in peace Remove lightetup could. And despite around two hours of operation, the lamps still had 80 percent accumaismT - a value that surprised us himself.
Conclusion: When technology enables creative freedom
In the end there was a damaged SUP, but a whole series of impressive recordings that show what is possible if Technology and creativity Perfect together. It was a complete success for Michael - and for us the best proof that ours Lux permanent lights not only strong and flexible, but also absolutely outdoor-compatible are. Exactly the right tool for people who Light not only see, but design want.
