Hi guys :) Im in my final year of film school, and I'm writing my dissertation on how a cinematographers lens choice is paramount when working in Virtual Production, specifically when working within an LED Volume. Namely how lens choice can reduce moire patterns, but also any other factors. I was wondering if anyone here had any advice/ experience with this equipment and phenomenon, please do drop a reply with any information regarding this, this would be greatly appreciated :)))))) Many thanks :)

As the film production shifts towards more sustainable practices, do high-energy consumption lights still have a place in the future of the industry? Production's are now more wary of their carbon footprint than ever before - with more advice and legislation continuing to come out; aiming to reduce this footprint. The advancement of LED technology brings further questions about the relevance of tungsten lights in the near future. Will tungsten lights have a future in the film and TV industry or are their days numbered?
