For TV Lighting, Edging Away from 3,200K

For the annual NFL Honors, broadcast from YouTube Theater at SoFi Stadium on Feb. 10, PLSN’s Michael S. Eddy asked LD Jon Kusner about balancing the lighting with the video screens. “It’s now getting easier and easier to get away from 3,200K, which was always not ideal for the screens department,” Kusner noted. “Being in the color space closer to 5,600K makes the screens look better. We were at 4,200K, that was our white light on this show. I like being at 4,200K because the color spectrum of reds and blues, from a lighting perspective, land pretty well there if you go either direction.”
