NMR chooses Elation’s KL Panel for Ryder Cup

After years of lighting Ryder Cup press areas with standard Lekos and PARs, the team at NMR Staging and Events decided to add Elation’s KL Panel LED softlight to their bag. This year’s Ryder Cup played out September 24-26 at Whistling Straits Golf Course in Wisconsin.

 

NMR purchased the KL light panels last year for use on tradeshows and NMR’s in-house studios. Daniel Gerstenhaber, head of lighting at NMR, says they bought additional luminaires to light this year’s press events at the Ryder Cup. “We needed to project a flat field of light for the main interview area, something that could deal with the ambient light levels of the open press tent”, states Gerstenhaber, who handled lighting design for the Ryder Cup press area.

 

An important aspect of the lighting was its ability to work with the high-speed cameras. “We needed to ensure there was no flicker so we needed something that could adjust the refresh rate frequency and the KL Panel could do that”, says Gerstenhaber. A small on-site crew that Gerstenhaber says included only a few techs handled the Ryder Cup press events. NMR’s Ed Conrad served as production manager and took care of all on-site needs.
