B0323 | SERIES OVERVIEW
Artemis Classic Tube
A long, high-output HMI, tungsten or hybrid balloon for streets, tracks, vehicle routes and large sets that require continuous traditional-source coverage along a defined axis.
Series Introduction
Artemis Classic Tube is developed around the tube form as a deliberate cinematography tool, not simply a decorative balloon. Its role is to create a larger apparent source, soften shadows and place useful light above or beside the set with less floor hardware. The product is configured around the production’s camera movement, mounting plan, power distribution, colour strategy and operating environment.
What Defines the Series
· Long geometry supports continuous illumination over routes and extended blocking.
· Multiple lamp compartments can be separately powered for zoned exposure and contingency.
· HMI, tungsten and hybrid circuit layouts fit traditional production power strategies.
· Distributed rigging and skirts stabilize and shape the extended source.
· External ballasts, dimmers and header cables remain accessible on the ground.
Typical Applications
· Night roads and vehicle tracking.
· Large streets, platforms and industrial sets.
· Feature-film crowd and action scenes.
· Long studio builds and cyc stages.
· Productions requiring powerful HMI/tungsten line sources.
Representative Planning Profiles
Configuration | Indicative size | Indicative source | Power / control | Best fit |
Classic Tube HMI | Approx. 4–10 m long | 2 × 575 W to 2 × 2400 W HMI | AC ballasts; zoned | Road, street and stage daylight ambience |
Classic Tube Tungsten | Approx. 4–10 m long | 4–16 kW total typical project range | AC dimmed circuits | Warm continuous top/side light |
Classic Tube Hybrid | Approx. 5–12 m long | HMI + tungsten compartments | Independent AC circuits | Colour and output flexibility along route |
How to Select the Right Artemis Form
Choose by the shape of the required luminous field and the physical constraints of the shot. Ellipse favours broad direction; Sphere favours environmental spread; Tube follows a long axis; Pad creates a shallow ceiling; Iris, Xpad and Xhalo solve compact or specialized portable tasks. Source technology is then selected by output, colour, control, power, heat, noise and the rental or ownership model.
Recommended Project Inputs
· Scene and camera coverage plan.
· Target mounting height and available rigging points.
· Required CCT, colour control and dimming method.
· Power source, connector standard and permitted cable path.
· Wind, weather, noise and operating-duration conditions.
· Required documentation, delivery date and service scope.
