Capture the Essence of Cinematic Lighting
For years, cinematographers have been crafting exquisite light with gobos. Today, as photo and video lights have evolved to incorporate cool-running LEDs, Scattergels present a game-changing opportunity. Simply attach these lightweight gels to your barn doors, and voilà—witness the magic of dappled light transforming your scene.

When you book a Lovegrove Adventures workshop you can rest assured that you have a world-class event to look forward to.

I have a wealth of experience gained over the past 35 years and I’d like to share it with you.” Damien Lovegrove
