Example |
|
|
feature film "Time of the Wolfe" (France/Germany 2003), 1:2,35, 35 mm |
What happens in this scene
Actress Isabelle Huppert turns on and off a lighter in a barn at night - while walking around. The effect is synced with a china ball, following her hold by an electrician.
How it worked in this app
Electricians used a DV-camera (nightshot mode) with attached LightingSensor for manual bearing to the actress´ lighter.
This (de-) activated the "candle" preset of the LFXHub - actress controlled lighting.
Please do not worry about the black screen in the scene at the beginning. Image comes back to life at 23rd second.
