What Type of Lights Are These?

[Cornell Williams]

I saw this video posted on here a while back and I took a snapshot of it because I wanted to buy the same lights. Now I cant remember the name of the video or who posted it so its hard for me to find out the name of the lights...Can anyone tell me what were the light panels with the 12 bulbs called. also I wanted to know how did they make the flaming sparks?

Looks like a 12-lite FAY from Mole. http://www.mole.com/lighting/fay_par/fays/5571/5571.html

Or a 12-light Molepar or Maxi-Brute

In Australia we call them Dinettes

HA!! thats funny.
I was sitting here grading this shot (below), got a bit bored and thought to surf the forum for a few minutes and first thing I saw was the same shot (sort of) with the same lights in the back ground !
Thats funny!

Dinettes in AUS as Adam said.

Hi I worked on that shoot and can confirm the Maxi-Brutes.

It was a 5 day promo shoot for the Norwegian Melodi Grand Prix.

The sparks are fireworks from a Swedish Pyroteck company that are now represented in Norway too. They were controlled with a control board on the side and gave us about 5 seconds flames.

Yep, maxi brutes. Check out the entire thing here.

Fun shoot, hurt my eyes shooting for 5 days in front of all that light.. Used sun shades a couple of times, no joke!

Thanks for the help guys

I'd think you would want to rent instead of buy maxi-brutes unless you have a generator. They are 9 x 1k ( or 750w? ) globes - so 9k of light.
