HPL 6 Light Convertibles on set
Pope and Finley tapped other fixtures for interactive
lighting effects. When the action moves high above street level,
Finley used batten strips with MR-16 globes under the actors to
simulate streetlights below. When the actors got closer to the
ground, the gaffer turned to Source Four Pars and Bardwell &
McAllister Mac Tech HPL fixtures to create a streetlight effect
that appeared to be closer to the actors. I really like the HPL,
attests Finley. Its like a redesigned Maxi-Brute, but it uses
the HPL Source Four-style globe. Unlike a Maxi, it has
interchangeable lenses, so I can use whatever lens I want from a
spot to a stipple. There are six- and 12-light fixtures, and
because the bulb is smaller and the filament is so small they
react really fast to dimmer control, which was crucial for these
sequences. Pope adds, We set up 10 different dimmer-chase
patterns that went with 10 different sections of the alley. We
dialed each chase for a different speed and different building
configuration, and then just pulled up each pattern when we were
shooting elements for that section of the alley.
