At the 2016 NAB Show in Las Vegas, across from our booth we spot Ed Barger, an award-winning cameraman with over 25 years experience. Versatile and innovative, his credits range from feature films, 65 mm 3-D films, commercials, corporate films and TV news. Ed holds up his original BargerLite and stands next to his new light solution displayed at his booth.
Working with top Directors of Photography like Vittorio Storaro, two-time Emmy winner Robert Collins and special effects specialist Chuck Schuman, he learned the importance of large light sources. His challenge became making that large source into a beautiful soft light that is practical in the everyday world of location shooting. Having used the Chimera system for years, the BargerLite is designed to bring the look of larger films to the budget and location restraints of everyday production. At first Ed designed them for himself. But once other DP’s, cameramen and gaffers saw what he was doing, they wanted the BargerLite as part of their lighting package. “Like teaching”, says Ed, “the BargerLite is a way to give back to the craft that has rewarded me so well.”
