00:13It's a punchy, native hard light
with a long throw.
00:17And also a powerful
native soft light
00:19with beautiful color
and smooth low-end dimming.
00:23It's flexible because
it's modular.
00:26It checks all the boxes
for advanced programming.
00:31Plus, it's
completely weatherproof.
00:35there are so many things
to discover.
00:37The development of this fixture
was guided by the wishes
00:40of DPs, gaffers, rentals,
00:43console programmers,
and independent filmmakers.
00:49that they should be the ones
introducing the new SkyPanel X
00:54Hello, my name is Harlon.
00:56I've been using SkyPanels
00:57avidly
for the last couple of years.
00:59So when ARRI rang me up
and asked me
01:00to have a look at their new light,
I jumped at the chance.
01:03I'm going to show you what
this can do.
01:05built to be incredibly sturdy
and incredibly robust.
01:08The front of the lamp
01:09has a glass cover
to protect the LED diodes
01:14from any nasty knocks, bumps,
rain, wind, anything.
01:20and because of the intensity
of the actual lamp,
01:23you can use it
as an amazing bounce.
01:26It can also be turned
into a beautiful key light
01:33which comes as standard
with the light,
01:37with the effortlessly tool-less
01:41process of snapping it on.
01:43What else this light can do
is the color spectrum,
01:46which is down to a
six-color engine,
01:48can go from 1,500 Kelvin
all the way up
01:51to 20,000 Kelvin,
which is double that of the S60.
01:55If you have existing products
with the S60,
02:00they have produced an adapter
02:03so you can use
all the existing products
02:10and you can add all the old
02:14accessories
available for the S60 into it.
02:20And that is not all it can do.
02:23Hi, my name is James Friend.
02:24I'm a cinematographer
02:25and I'm very proud
to say that about three months ago
02:28ARRI invited me
to test their new SkyPanel X,
02:33which is part of the new
SkyPanel family,
02:35which is a pretty game-changing
lamp as far as I'm concerned.
02:39I've been using SkyPanels
for years,
02:42ever since
they've been released.
02:43And it really did open up
creatively and technically.
02:48It kind of re-engineered
the way I approached
02:51lighting on stage
and on location.
02:56truly spectacular,
not only because it's IP rated,
02:59but also the major bonus
for me for this lamp
03:04is one of the accessories
called the HyPer Optic.
03:12of 72 individual lenses
which can fit natively
03:17on the rectangular source.
03:22And what it does, is gives you
03:25an extremely high-performance,
03:27high-output focal sphere.
03:31And to demonstrate it
properly
03:34we're going to go outside.
03:39So, you can see here
03:43that it's
taking a rectangular unit,
03:46but it's projecting
a circular beam
03:49like a spotlight,
essentially, which is absolutely
03:52mind-boggling
and absolutely fantastic.
03:55You know, I can bounce it
off of a butterfly
03:59for a softer effect,
even though you're essentially
04:01turning it into a hard unit.
04:03I can now use this
on night exteriors
04:06and know that if the unit
gets wet, that it can still
04:10live in a cherry picker
or rigged on a backlot.
04:13It really is
just a fantastic lamp
04:16because it enables me to have
04:20the same sort of number
of lamps, but more control
04:23and it gives me a lot
more creativity
04:25and a lot more sort of technical
freedom on set.
04:30want to feather the shadows
a little bit, you can
04:34add another attachment here.
04:41With this attachment, you can
04:45add a light diffusion
04:51and because it's rigid
04:53and it's not gel, it's silent.
04:56So it keeps our sound department
friends very happy.
05:00And it's robust,
it's brilliant.
05:02I just can't wait to use it on
05:04my next show,
to be perfectly honest.
05:09I'm a Germany-based gaffer,
05:11and up until now you've seen
the X21,
05:14but with the SkyPanel X
05:16ARRI is launching two
more products:
05:17the X22 and the X23.
05:20And I'm
going to show you right now.
05:31Put down the handle.
05:32The cool thing about this is
05:34we have here the quick-release
mounting system
05:37so one person
can mount any of the three.
05:44We are going for the
X23 right now,
05:50as you probably guessed,
05:51because I have three
lamps here.
06:04the data daisy-chain connectors.
06:06And on the other side on
the back is the power supply.
06:09They connect as well
06:10so it's a daisy chain.
06:13I'm going to quickly
06:17You can choose
any of the two here,
06:24So now Ethernet is connected.
06:26I'm going to go for the power
supply and connect it also.
06:35And the cool thing about this is
06:37you only need one power
mains cable
06:41to achieve a
very, very impressive output.
06:44What is important
to know, you need only one yoke.
06:47A good thing to know
also is that you need
06:50only one control panel,
06:51so I can remove these two.
06:57It's really a huge output
06:59and I'm just going to reduce it
a little bit,
07:01so we are not blinded,
07:05You can actually
swap the optics.
07:08We now have three Domes
07:11and I'm going to swap one
07:31So you can put all
HyPer Optics
07:33or two Domes
and one HyPer Optic, or whatever.
07:37It's like a very new way
of lighting.
07:39It can be a very hard lamp,
07:41a semi-soft lamp,
or a very soft lamp.
07:44So, Chimera is actually creating
a huge softbox for the X23.
07:49So if you want it
to be a very soft light,
07:51it can also be that.
07:52You could light a whole movie
only with SkyPanel Xs.
07:55They are communicating
so well with each other.
07:58You have no hue differences.
08:01The swapping is done very easily,
and very fast.
08:04you could just take the
SkyPanel X and be done with it.
08:08But let's stop here.
08:09Uwe had the chance
to play around with it a bit
08:20And now let's see if we
fight against this one.
08:25Let's check when the 4K
takes over.
08:31Now it's even stronger.
08:32It's more than halfway.
Yeah. More than half.
08:39Yeah, that's really not bad.
08:40I am going to show
you something
08:42that will be quite
a surprise.
08:44It's the shape
of the beam.
08:47You get a round beam out of
a rectangular fixture.
08:50And also the spill is
quite cool.
08:54All the accessories
are here
08:58to cut away the spill light
here on the side.
09:03The eggcrate at the front.
09:10I would say let’s try
another soft option.
09:16That is an S60 Adapter.
09:18So you can use all the accessories
that you had with the S60.
09:29One daisy chain for me, please.
09:40What I really like about it
09:42is that the light performs
really well as a soft light
09:46And as we saw,
as a hard light.
09:49And maybe you can
combine it.
09:52I have a little idea.
09:56And so you have maybe
a little... I don’t know, highlight in the middle,
09:59like a kick in the eye.
10:02Have a little crisp light
10:04but not hard shadows.
10:06We create some shadow,
but well, it is still enough
10:09and you fill it up
quite well over the surface.
10:11There might be a situation
I use it.
10:16So there is the frame,
let’s build it.
10:31Now, now it's a party.
10:34Did you feel in any way
the M40?
10:37The 4K is not making it.
10:42Reminds me a little bit of
a Maxibrute or something.
10:52It's crazy.
Unbelievable.
10:54Let's shoot it outside.
11:05And you don't need
a generator for it
11:07because it's not a Dino.
11:08I think the next step should be
11:10to take a bigger bounce
11:12also with the lamphead
from the cherry picker
11:14to a 12x12 for example.
11:17And the flare is also nice
in the camera, I guess.
11:23have a softer night light
11:27So let's switch the frame
with the fixture.
11:37So now we fill up
the whole place.
11:41You can walk around,
11:49This is only possible with that
small beam angle.
11:54Because you don't lose
light on the edges of the frame.
11:58I think there's no other fixture
where you can
12:01create a light
like this.
12:04Because the optics
are so exact.
12:15So you see
it can be soft or hard
12:18because it's modular
12:19and it's really easy to control.
12:23There is more to explore,
12:29or like the multiple rigging
possibilities
12:33and also the very special
ALEXA Modes.
12:37And we'll definitely do a Tech
Talk on that one!
12:40You can also learn more
about the SkyPanel X
12:43digital twin
for virtual production.
12:46All that information and more
