Barry Ackroyd BSC is a BAFTA nominated, Director of Photography - well known for his innovative approach to lighting

"LED lighting is coming of age. I have formed CineLED with LED specialist Andy Clark to develop uses for this new technology.

Our first light is based on the ringlight idea that has been tried in many different forms.  Over the years, I've used regular tungsten bulbs mounted around the lens, circular fluorescent tubes and now use our first product, the LED Eyelite.  Our aim with the Eyelite is to offer the best designed, best performing and most versatile light available. 

The 'eye' shape represents my intention as a working Director of Photography to use the light source in the best possible way.  The oval shape ensures that light wraps around the subject, creating soft shadow less fill or source light - it also ensures that the operators peripheral vision is clear.

Eyelite comes with interchangeable light sources, fixed into the rigid chassis.  This makes it simple to use a range of lighting sources including daylight and tungsten.  We have also created an RGB source which is designed to compliment any given lighting effect.  The RGB source also allows a DP to dial in any colour of the spectrum at will during the shoot.

Eyelite is (to our knowledge) the most powerful LED source available.  It gives out a very good F stop - well beyond the range of 1 or 2 meters achieved by earlier lights.  Eyelite will provide as much as F4.0 over 3 meters with 500 ASA film stock.

LEDs are a fast developing technology and will be refined and improved dramatically over the next few years.  With CineLED we intend to provide the industry with the best lighting design available."
