17 April 2012
Philips Selecon and Strand Lighting distributor, Architainment has completed an installation project for ITN at the brand new, remote controlled Channel 5 News Room in London Bridge. Paul Flook, head of broadcast engineering for Channel 5 is delighted: "We had a number of challenges including the low ceilings, reduced access to significant power and the necessity for a remote controlled News Room. The installed system addresses all these issues and the result is excellent. We now have a fully functioning remote control News Room that allows for creative flair as well as practical lighting for TV. I'm impressed. As soon as we set up the system it just did its work without issue every time."
Philips Selecon PL1s make all the difference to the ‘Man in the Middle’
21 March 2012
Respected UK lighting designer Johanna Town used Philips Selecon PL1 LED luminaires to great effect on Wiki play, Man in the Middle by Ron Elisha. "I found the units were equally as effective using these colours and to my satisfaction there was very little light loss. The units are really easy to rig, they were pretty much plug and play. Having discovered how good the PL1s are, I can't wait to see what the PL3 LEDs might do!"
