Abstract:
1. A compact, versatile light projection device, comprising: a plurality of par lamps of at least four in number, said par lamps capable of operating in a universal burn position; a lighting frame configured to directly or indirectly support said plurality of par lamps therefrom, said lighting frame adapted to be mounted on a stand or suspended; a diffusion frame attachable to said lighting frame for channeling and controlling the light from the par lamps, the diffusion frame having a back end and a front end and being attachable to said lighting frame such that said par lamps project light from the back end towards the front end of the diffusion frame; and a primary filter holding element disposed at or near the front end of said diffusion frame, whereby when a filter element comprising a light-diffusing material is mounted in said primary filter holding element, light produced by said par lamps is directed through the filter element; wherein said par lamps have a back section, and each comprise a high efficiency bulb, a reflector, a burner, and a lens; wherein said lighting frame provides rearward access to said par lamps; wherein one or more of said burners is removable from the back section of said par lamps to facilitate rapid replacement of the bulb; and wherein said diffusion frame comprises at least one sidewall comprising a translucent material, and an interior semi-translucent baffle which allows some portion of light from one or more of the par lamps to be directed toward the front of the diffusion frame while simultaneously reflecting light from the one or more par lamps towards the sidewall whereby projected soft light is created through the sidewall.
