We Have New Lighting Options!

As we’ve continued to grow into our upgraded studio location in NW Portland, we're excited to announce the addition of an entire new fleet of in-house ChromaQ Space Force Octo space lights.  We now have the ability to evenly fill our grid with a total of 12, LED soft-light sources that provide an affordable and easy lighting option for your next production at Cine Rent West. You gotta check these out! 

After renting a whole truck full for a recent beverage commercial with Droptree productions, we decided they looked too good to leave the studio, so we worked out a deal with our friends at Felix Lighting in LA to buy a dozen.  Comparable to a traditional 6kW fixture, they have a no fan, no noise design, which makes them perfect for capturing quality audio on our sound stage. The variety of mounting options and accessories have also come in really handy. All 12 are currently paired with a manual yoke, a bridle, a low profile bale and a soft lantern. 

What else do we like about them you ask? Well, since each light only weighs 17.6 lbs, they're easy to setup and hang from the grid.  They're also extremely versatile with variable white light (2,800K – 6,000K) and built-in theatrical grade dimming (the wireless DMX/RDM function can be easily routed to a dimmer board).  Additionally, their efficient design helps keeps the stage at a comfortable temperature and our power bill low.
