Rosco, a specialist in lighting and backdrop technologies for the live entertainment and film and television industries, will showcase two products at the 2023 Cine Gear Expo in Los Angeles on 2-3 June. When attendees visit Cine Gear booth #S1445, they’ll be able to experience the Rosco RDX LAB System powered by FuseFX software as well as Rosco’s line of DMG lighting fixtures, including the new DMG LION.
RDX LAB System
Having exhibited as a prototype at last year’s Cine Gear Expo, Rosco’s RDX System has since received substantial upgrades and is ready to make its official debut. Combined with Rosco’s extensive digital content library with advanced in-camera visual effects software from FuseFX, the RDX System unlocks more potential from LED-based virtual productions. Attendees will see first-hand how the system is controlled entirely through a mobile app to transform traditional backdrop imagery into a live action backdrop on any LED volume. They’ll also see how to manipulate images to reflect depth, zoom, moving traffic, weather, the time of day, and more.
DMG lighting
Also, on display at the Expo will be a prototype of Rosco’s all-new DMG LION LED Fresnel. This 13-inch, 1,500-watt fixture will be the newest member of Rosco’s DMG lighting range of fixtures for the film, TV, and broadcast industries. When developing the DMG LION, Rosco’s mission was simple – build a Fresnel and do it well. The result is a state-of-the-art fixture that replicates the look and feel of the illumination generated by the classic tungsten Fresnel, but with all of the versatility LED technology provides.
Features include:
- Two interchangeable chipsets that can be swapped out in less than 60 seconds, without any tools:
- A chipset that features Rosco’s patented MIX Technology to provide full-spectrum output that matches the other fixtures in Rosco’s DMG Lighting range.
- A SWITCH chipset that produces a powerful, bi-colour output with a colour temperature range of 2700K-6500K.
- A 13-inch lens that produces a powerful large beam and crisp shadows.
- Rugged, outdoor-rated housing that is engineered for dependable performance in all weather conditions.
“We’re looking forward to showcasing new innovative solutions, like the RDX System and DMG LION for the first time at Cine Gear LA,” said Lauren Proud, vice president of marketing & digital experience at Rosco. “From cost savings to creative flexibility, our new products bring significant benefits to filmmakers, cinematographers, set lighting technicians, and production crews. We’re excited to demonstrate how Rosco’s technologies can bring more value to productions of any size.”
