Abstract
Light apparatus and systems to produce a diffused light source for stage, studio, motion picture and still photography. A tube constructed from selected proportions of diffusion material and reflective material is secured at opposite ends to light reflectors or light reflecting umbrellas with light sources. The light generated by the light sources is reflected off of the reflectors and is also reflected off of the reflective material of the tube to produce a desirable light dispersion pattern across the length of the diffusion material of the tube.
Claims6
An apparatus to produce diffused light comprising:
- a tube having it first end and a second end, the first end adapted to engage and cover a first light reflector having a first light source and the second end adapted to engage and cover a second light reflector having a second light source, the color temperature of the first light source is different than the color temperature of the second light source;
- and
- the tube formed from light reflecting material and light diffusion material so that when the first end of the tube engages and covers the first light reflector and the second end of the tube engages and covers the second light reflector, the light generated by the light reflectors is reflected of the light reflecting material of the tube and a light dispersion patient is produced through the light diffusion material of the tube.
An apparatus to produce diffused light comprising:
- a tube having a first end and second end, the first end adapted to engage and cover a first light reflector having a first light source and the second end adapted to engage and cover a second light reflector having a second light source;
- and
- the tube formed from light reflecting material and light diffusion material so that when the first end of the tube engages and covers the first light reflector and the second end of the tub engages and covers the second light reflector, the light generated by the light reflectors is reflected off the light reflecting material of the tube and a light dispersion pattern is produced through the light diffusion material of the tube, wherein the reflective material includes a textured pattern imprinted thereon.
An apparatus to produce diffused light comprising:
- a tube having a first end and a second end, the first end adapted to engage and cover a first light reflector having a first light source and the second end adapted to engage and cover a second light reflector having a second light source;
- and
- the tube formed from light reflecting material and light diffusion material so that when the first end of the tube engages and covers the first light reflector and the second end of the engages and covers the second light reflector, the light generated by the light reflectors is reflected off the light reflecting material of the tube and a light dispersion pattern is produced through the light diffusion material of the tube, wherein the tube is stretched between the first and second light reflectors and secured thereto by elastic bands and light blocking transition pieces.
An apparatus to produce diffused light comprising:
- a tube having a first end and a second end, the first end adapted to engage and cover a first light reflector having first light source and the second end adapted to engage and cover a second light reflector having a second light source;
- and
- the tube formed from light reflecting material and light diffusion material so that when the first end of the tube engages and covers the first light reflector and the second end of the tube engages and covers the second light reflector, the light generated by the light reflectors is reflected off the light reflecting material of the tube and a light dispersion pattern is produced through the light diffusion material of the tube, wherein the light diffusion material forms substantially all of the tube.
An apparatus to produce diffused light comprising:
- a tube having a first end and a second end, the first end adapted to engage and cover a first light reflector having a first light source and the second end adapted to engage and cover a second light reflector having a second light source;
- and
- the tube formed from light reflecting material and light diffusion material so that when the first end of the tube engages and covers the first light reflector and the second end of the tube engages and covers the second light reflector, the light generated by the light reflectors is reflected off the light reflecting material of the tube and a light dispersion pattern is produced through the light diffusion material of the tube, wherein the reflective material includes a laminated multi-layer textile material.
An apparatus to produce diffused light comprising:
- a tube having a first end and a second end, the first end adapted to engage and cover a first light reflector having a first light source and the second end adapted to engage and cover a second light reflector having a second light source;
- and
- the tube formed from light reflecting material and light diffusion material so that when the first end of the tube engages and covers the first light reflector and the second end of the tube engages and covers the second light reflector, the light generated by the light reflectors is reflected off the light reflecting material of the tube and a light dispersion pattern is produced through the light diffusion material of the tube, wherein the reflective material includes a laminated multi-layer textile material and the laminated multi-layer textile material includes a reflective foil layer and a plastic film layer.
