LiteGear Pledges LiteMat+ Plus To Benefit Behind The Scenes

LiteGear, designers and builders of LED lighting gear for professionals in Cinema, TV, and HD Video industries has become a Behind the Scenes Pledge-a-Product Partner. LiteGear, the pioneer behind the popularization of flexible LED lighting for use in Cinema and TV lighting applications, has pledged a percentage of the profits from sales of their new flagship fixtures, LiteMat+ Plus, to support the charity. The new fixtures are the ideal luminaires for stage, studio and location lighting setups. Available in 6 sizes, these bi-color studio fixtures feature all-new Cinemitter™ LEDs, the first truly cinematic LED light sources available. TLCI rated at 96/97, this duo of 2600º deep-tungsten and 6000º daylite emitters produce accurate and extended range adjustable Kelvin temperature for instant and granular control of color.

"We are thrilled to be associated with Behind the Scenes. It's incredible to see an organization that actually supports the team behind the lens. As technicians ourselves, we know the difficulties of our industry and we absolutely want to support that community, our customers, in their time of need" says Al DeMayo, President and CEO of LiteGear.

Rick Rudolph, the Chair of Behind the Scenes, welcomed LiteGear as a Pledge-a-Product Partner saying, “We are particularly excited about LiteGear becoming a valued partner as it will help spread awareness among members of the the industries they serve. Behind the Scenes has assisted many individuals who work in Cinema and TV including camera operators, grips and gaffers. This will get the word out to even more industry professionals that help is available while also providing an opportunity to give back to the community by purchasing these products.”
