On recent projects like Yannick, he experiments with new ways of powering sound sets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A fully autonomous light truck<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Even on demanding productions, he pushes innovation to its limits: Renaud Garnier now tours with a self-contained lighting truck capable of operating without a generator.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Thanks to the integration of battery and solar power solutions, the entire system can be powered independently while maintaining a high level of performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Freeing oneself from the generator<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Traditionally, film shoots rely on generators: noisy, polluting, and cumbersome to deploy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With these new solutions, it becomes possible to significantly reduce, or even completely eliminate, their use on certain film sets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Silence, comfort and performance<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Beyond environmental impact, silence is becoming a key advantage on set, especially for sound recording.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Pess Energy solutions offer stable and reliable power, suitable for the most demanding lighting equipment, while improving the working conditions of the crew.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A new way of producing<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This energy self-sufficiency, from the truck to the set, allows for lighter, more mobile, and faster filming.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It also meets the growing expectations of productions regarding carbon footprint reduction, without compromising artistic standards.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Today we can run an entire light truck without a generator, thanks to batteries and solar power.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":6,"featured_media":6734,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"inline_featured_image":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[53],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-6697","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-cinema"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.7 -
