GTC Innovation Award

Lightbridge
Christian Berger & Jakob Ballinger

We were honoured to present Jakob Ballinger founder of Lightbridge and Christian Berger AAC inventor of the Cine Reflect Lighting System with our Innovation Award for their spectacular Lightbridge CRLS.

The Innovation Award is awarded to a piece of equipment that has made an outstanding contribution to the art and craft of television camera professionals and the Lightbridge CRLS is a deserving recipient.

The Lightbridge CRLS is a series of reflectors designed to provide you with a natural look by maximizing the flow of light from a single or original source. There are 4 different levels of diffusion on precision aluminum-coated, smoothly polished, wrinkle free surfaces that reflect 97% of the light without any colour shift.
