They use a tungsten light corrected to\u00a0daylight with\u00a0the camera <strong>balanced at a tungsten setting<\/strong>.\u00a0This results in the familiar blue light most of us are familiar with. The light bounces\u00a0from a reflector, as the Fresnel on its own would be too powerful, and the lighting technician then frequently <strong>moves a CTO gel back and forth<\/strong> between the Fresnel and reflector to create the color flicker. The results at 3:12 are very convincing.<\/p>\n<p>By taking a cue from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=gyJoso2xx1c\" data-wpel-link=\"external\" target=\"_blank\">Tom Antos&#8217;s video tutorial<\/a> on the subject, you can place a set of\u00a0light gels onto the bottom of a stand in separate sections.

Remember, the reason to use\u00a0lights to replicate TV light is because <strong>the actual light from a TV isn&#8217;t sufficient<\/strong> or controllable, so you don&#8217;t want your actors underexposed by the LED panel. Place a single sheet of the lowest diffusion gel you have over the LED to remove the initial glare. Finally, for a test run, increase\u00a0and decrease the intensity every few seconds to mimic a scene change on the TV.<\/p>\n<div style=\"width: 1280px;\" class=\"wp-video\"><video class=\"wp-video-shortcode\" id=\"video-83257-1\" width=\"1280\" height=\"720\" preload=\"metadata\" controls=\"controls\"><source type=\"video\/mp4\" src=\"https:\/\/www.premiumbeat.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/LED-TV-Example.mp4?_=1\" \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.premiumbeat.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/LED-TV-Example.mp4\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\">https:\/\/www.premiumbeat.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/LED-TV-Example.mp4<\/a><\/video><\/div>\n<p>The final result produces a much brighter (and controlled) exposure than an actual TV would offer.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"what-about-phone-screens\"><strong>What about phone screens?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>While you won\u2019t encounter a flicker problem with most modern smartphones, their light is\u00a0often too weak if you want to use the phone light as the key.
