All About Mounting Total Control Lighting Into a Garment
antrolumeWell, you know how much we like costumes! We have a fabulous video we want to share with you.
Our friends at Anthrolume have made a great tutorial video about mounting Total Control Lighting into a garment! The tutorial will show you how to:

  • hide the wiring
  • keep the garment from fraying at the points where the LEDs emerge
  • be water-resistant
  • have good reflectivity properties

cool neon feminist purseOur client, Michele Pred sent us a note that she is going to be at the Art Market in San Francisco April 30 – May 3, 2015. You can find her, with her Cool Neon feminist art purses, in the Nancy Hoffman Gallery booth #413.

It would be great if you could stop by and say hello if you are in the neighborhood.

She also mentioned that her Cool Neon pro-choice purse is featured in the May issue of Nylon Magazine (see photo above).
We always are excited to see the artists who are using Cool Neon Electroluminescent Wire have such success in the world.
Congratulations Michele.

OMG! You have to watch the video below shot with the two LED Light Suits we custom made for the film!  It might be one of the most beautiful videos we have ever seen!

AFTERGLOW – Lightsuit Segment from Sweetgrass Productions on Vimeo.

Watch the full 12 minute film Oct 19: www.philips.com/ambilight

Presented by Philips TV and Atomic Skis
Featuring: Pep Fujas, Eric Hjorleifson, Daron Rahlves, and Chris Benchetler

From the depth of the creative visuals to the groundbreaking, never-been-done-before scale of the shoot, Afterglow is being hailed as one of the most cinematically profound ski movies ever made. Deep pillows and Alaskan spines, all filmed at night, with massive lights, custom made LED suits, and a national governments worth of logistics, planning, and civil engineering.

Filmed as a partnership between Sweetgrass Productions, Philips TV, and the Swedish Agency Ahlstrand & Wållgren, it’s two parts creativity, one part branded content, and a pinch of masochism for good measure. Overall, it’s an incredibly unique partnership between our vision of skiing and the color and light technology behind the Philips Ambilight TV.

Supported by: Atomic, Freefly Systems (MOVI), NiteRider, Golden Alpine Holidays, Alyeska Resort & Talvista Lodge.

Shot on location at: Golden Alpine Holidays Sentry Lodge, Alyeska Resort, and the Alaskan Wilderness
