UK - Blackburn-based lighting and visuals rental company HSL is supplying specialist LED light sources to the current series of the popular ITV quiz show, The Chase, in the process renewing its long and fruitful working relationship with leading TV lighting designer Tom Kinane, who has lit the series since it started.
HSL is supplying i-Pix BB4 LED wash lights and Satellite LED 'bricks' plus Pulsar Chroma strips to the show, which is being recorded in Studio Two at The London Studios (TLS) on the South Bank. The schedule is intense, recording three shows a day in batches of five days, and it has a daily broadcast slot on ITV 1 between 5 and 6 p.m. They have also just recorded six 'celebrity specials' - in TLS Studio One with live audiences - that are being aired on Saturdays.
HSL's project manager and TV sector specialist Sean McGlone comments, "It's always a pleasure to work with Tom, he is a real perfectionist and always comes up with great results."
