Thanks, I understand that the 1kW par bulbs will flicker due to their low wattage. My real question is does anyone know if the flickering will be visible if spread out over 3 phases or will the phases compensate for the flicker and give a seemingly constant light at 1000 FPS. Many thanks!

I have been asked to light a 1000 FPS shot in front of a green screen. I understand that 5kW lights and above do not cause flicker at 1000 fps, but is the same true for a 24kW Dino? Will the individual bulbs cause flicker or will the flicker be eliminated when the bulbs are spread out over 3 phases? I presume using a diffusion gel might help reduce flicker but I really need all the light I get can. Any suggestions? I am shooting in Europe with 50Hz and 3 phase generators.
