New Orleans-based Gaffer Trenton McRae has discovered a new way to create black light effects on camera – Rosco’s Miro Cube™ UV365 LED fixture. In the short time he’s owned them, Trenton has already put his Miro Cubes to work on two feature films, including Disney’s My Invisible Sister. Most recently, he used these powerful LED black lights on a Joey Bada$$ music video that was featured in a Mountain Dew ad campaign for the 2017 NBA Postseason. Take a look at the black light effects he created in the video below and then read about how and why he used the Miro Cubes to provide the black light effects the project needed.
You’ll note a number of black light sequences in the music video – all of which were energized by the 50 watt Rosco Miro Cube UV365 units. Because the fixtures were compact and lightweight (each 4” cube only weighs 2 lbs), Trenton was able to quickly and easily rig the fixtures where he needed them. Thanks to the fixtures’ tight beam path and the set of spread lenses included with each unit, Trenton was also able to concentrate the light precisely where he needed it on the shoot.
