IMAGO Technical Committee & ICLS - Presentation and discussion on 'Its all about LEDs'

In today's digital workflow, LED lighting fixtures have become an integral part of image capture, making an accurate understanding of their output essential. This roundtable will delve into the technical yet practical aspects of using LEDs, focusing on how to measure and differentiate them using their spectral characteristics and the new, more precise Spectral Similarity Index (SSI). We'll specifically examine the color grading part of the pipeline as the ultimate testbed for LED performance, underscoring the new role and responsibilities of gaffers and the indispensable judgment of colorists in achieving consistent and high-quality results. Our goal is to provide simple but highly effective strategies for working with these sophisticated lighting tools.
