About
An interview from the 2015 Cine Gear LA Expo at Paramount Studios with Jon Miller of Hive Lighting. Located in Downtown Los Angeles, Hive Lighting is a manufacturer of 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 version of their Wasp Plasma Par Light, the 6-Light Killer Maxi, and the Mobi Gen portable power source.
A 6-Light Killer Maxi, featuring the new Wasp Plasma Pars, produces an output equivalent to a 4,000W HMI when plugged into a single wall socket. With each Par running off just 276 watts, it is possible to plug in as many as 12 lamps to house power without extra generators or cabling.
Each Wasp Plasma Par and Killer Maxi array features Hive’s Daylight Dial, offering tunable color temperature (in Kelvin) from 4,800K-7,000K. The Dial is calibrated to prevent any green/magenta shift with virtually no dimming (<10%) and offer 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, as well as warm or cool a scene creatively without the use of gels.
The Wasp Par can be combined with a variety of standard accessories, including lenses and soft-boxes.
