Abstract: A moveable, adjustable lighting system for use in television/movie sets and locations, and other similar indoor/outdoor applications comprises at least one horizontal framework that is disposed on a plurality of vertical members in such a way as to allow the horizontal and vertical dimensions of the system, as well as the individual lights and fixtures within the system to be adjusted and adapted to the requirements of a specific set. Lights, lighting fixtures, and other similar fixtures are connected in such a way as to enable them and/or the dimensions of the system to be remotely controlled. The vertical members are equipped with moving means, such as rollers, that allow the entire rig to be moved from one set to another. The system suggests and embodies an “assembly-line production” process in which sets are separately constructed to allow the rig to move between and among them.

Abstract: A portable, adaptable, modular lighting system for use in television and movie sets and locations, and other similar applications is described. The system comprises a horizontal framework that is disposed on a plurality of vertical members in such a way as to allow the framework to move up and down relative to the vertical members. Lights, lighting fixtures, and other similar fixtures are attached to the framework in such a way as to enable the system to be remotely controlled. Specifically, in an embodiment of the invention, the lights, fixtures, and/or framework are computer controlled. As such, the operation, intensity, angle, height, and other similar specifications of the system can be pre-programmed, and the rig remotely operated, as needed. The system is portable, as the vertical members are equipped with moving means, such as rollers, that allow the entire rig to be moved from one set to another.
