About
An interview from the 2014 Cine Gear LA Expo at Paramount Studios with Jon Miller of Hive Lighting. Hive Lighting manufactures high quality lights engineered to be durable, lightweight and foolproof. They use 50% to 90% less energy than conventional studio fixtures. Their simple, rugged design makes them suitable for all types of production, whether on stages, studios or at remote locations. In this interview Jon talks with us about the latest advancements in technology across their full line, the Hive Daylight Dial. This feature offers fully tunable color temperatures (Kelvin) from 4600K – 7000K without any green/magenta shift. As well as the ability to shift all the way to a deep blue moonlight. The Daylight Dial allows the user to track the natural shift of the Sun over the course of a day and warm or cool a scene creatively without the use of gels.
The Killer Plasma Maxi is a completely unique fixture. It uses Hive’s Wasp Plasma Par optics but combines two lights in one housing, making it the most versatile in Hive’s line. A single Killer can be used as a double Par, giving you 2X more light. It’s as bright as a 1.2K HMI, but only draws 540 watts. Two individual Killer units can be combined using a frame to make 2×2 arrays. Another unique feature is the ability to individually tune each lamps color temperature using the Daylight Dial, giving you maximum flexibility for the most creative of shots.
