CINEMILLS at CINEGEAR 2015

Another successful event at CINEGEAR, 2015. Every year, Paramount Studio hosts one of the best industry expo in the area. Many of the latest gadgets, technology, services, and new lighting technology from CINEMILLS showcased at the event.

This year, we brought the buzzing light in the industry, SUFA BULLET. The lighting fixture is one of the most talked about in the LED market. Weighing only 60lbs. and drawing only 7.3A at 110V, the Sufa Bullet™, with a patented silver optical system, is one of the most powerful LED fixtures on the market. Comparable output to a 6K HMI fresnel the Sufa Bullet requires no ballast, and no HMI globe. The Sufa Bullet has a lifespan of 50,000 hrs. ( 77° F ) which equates to a cost savings of approximately $130K in HMI globe replacement.

The Cinesofts are 50, 100, & 200 watt studio LED lighting systems for the most discerning motion picture production and broadcast studio professionals. They generate up to 20,000 lumens of high spectral quality light. They are fully dimmable from 100% down to off, in 5% increments for fine-grain interactive lighting control without flicker or color shift. The Cinesoft professional imaging tools are without equal. With a lightweight yet rugged aluminum alloy construction, incredible lighting performance and full featured control system it’s designed from the ground up to be your go-to choice for the most exacting lighting tasks. Its light output replaces a 500W Tungsten softlight. It has a color temperature (Kelvin) range between 2800K and 5600K. Select from 5 preset Kelvin settings (2800K, 3200K, 4000K, 5000K, 5600K) or use the dedicated jog wheel to modulate color temperature in real time. Dimming and color temperature can be controlled simultaneously using interactive jog wheels for maximum creative control and interactivity. Full DMX512 control over dimming and color temperature, with a professional 5 pin interface. Includes a robust yoke for stand mounting or suspension. An integral 4 point rope hang system is also built into the housing, so you can mount the Cinesoft in virtually any configuration.

CINEMILLS SILVER BULLET Graced the Cover of Time Magazine - MadMen

CINEMILLS recently graced the cover of TIME Magazine for the final season of MadMen. In the cover, John Hamm and Christina Hendricks posing in the film set, and right in the middle of it, is our legendary lighting, Silver Bullet.

The show will surely be missed, as last episode of Mad Men premiered last night. As TIME mentioned, "IT MADE TELEVISION HISTORY BY MAKING HISTORY INTO TELEVISION."

Thank you, MadMen for entertaining us for several years!
