IT’S LIT - My $20M TV Series Lighting Package
Hi everyone, I wanted to share some insights into the lighting package I'm using on my current TV series Ripple, which I am the solo Director of Photography on across all 8 episodes and 61 shooting days. Managing the lighting for the entire series working with 4 different directors has been an exciting challenge. Attached are the PDFs detailing my full studio and road lighting packages. For the studio, my gaffer recommended going with a robust tungsten package so we could have more individual sources to spread the light. I tend to prefer big HMI lights, but I saw the wisdom in his suggestion for the studio work. For our road package used for location interiors and exteriors, I put together a versatile kit that allows me a wide range of options. From small battery powered LEDs to large HMIs, I tried to anticipate the varied needs we might encounter. I'm really enjoying the flexibility this package provides. One thing I'm doing a lot is diffusing and bouncing large sources to get the quality of light I'm after. By combining the lighting package with a variety of grippage - large frames, solids, thick diffusions, etc. - I'm able to get all the control I need. Lighting Ripple has been a fun challenge so far. I'm learning a lot having to plan for and manage the lighting across so many episodes, sets and locations. Hopefully this gives you a little window into my process and the tools I'm using to create the look of the show. Let me know if you have any questions!

The information you’re sharing is invaluable, not just for junior cinematographers, but also for seasoned professionals in the industry. It provides a sense of what colleagues are doing at various levels. Thank you for sharing! How do you get the clearance for this, and what was your approach to production in asking for it? Did you encounter any hesitation?
