About this Event

When LEDs first came on the scene, they were great for what they were initially intended: Video production. Sure, we used them occasionally, but Flash was always the answer on a serious set. Things have changed significantly in the last 10 years; not only are LEDs powerful and color-correct, but some also feature RGBW capabilities. Does Flash still have an advantage? What is it? Is it worth the learning curve?


Join Daniel Norton OnSet as he works with both constant lights and flash, highlighting the strengths and weaknesses of each. In the end, we will answer the question: Why flash?


Please Note: This is a don't miss in-person event that is also livestreamed on the Adorama YouTube channel.
