Cinemills Lights Up The Crime Scenes From CSI Las Vegas

10-5-2011 Yesterday, our Director of Online Social Media, Russo Mutuc, was outside the set of CSI Las Vegas in Pasadena, CA. Here are some cell phone snap shots of the Cinemills Silver Bullet lighting.

CSI: Crime Scene Investigation (also known as CSI: Las Vegas and also abbreviated as CSI) is an American crime drama television series, which premiered on CBS on October 6, 2000. The show was created by Anthony E. Zuiker and produced by Jerry Bruckheimer. It is filmed primarily at Universal Studios in Universal City, California.
The series follows Las Vegas criminalists (identified as "Crime Scene Investigators" working for the Las Vegas Police Department instead of the actual title of "Crime Scene Analysts" and "Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department")^[1] as they use physical evidence to solve grisly murders in this unusually graphic drama, which has inspired a host of other cop-show "procedurals". An immediate ratings smash for CBS, the series mixes deduction, gritty subject matter and popular characters. The network quickly capitalized on its hit with spin-offs CSI: Miami and CSI: NY.

Light Meters To Measure The Proper Exposure

A camera has several features that can make your image top quality. But in order to get the best image exposure, the right settings needs to be implemented. The person behind the camera has to program the settings, and tools like light meters can help guide them.

Light can come from several sources; natural or artificial. In a professional setting, it is crucial the cinematographer or photographer be able to read what those lighting outputs are and eventually input the information into the camera to create a proper exposure.

Here is a great video from Sekonic, featuring Bobbi Lane.
