Project: NRJ Paris television and radio production studio

In its new studios, NRJ Paris has installed a lighting system based totally on LEDs, which offer several advantages compared to conventional light sources, including high luminous yield, low power consumption, long duration and minimum maintenance.

Other exclusive characteristics of the systems installed, like the high quality of RGB color generation, precise control over color temperature and the total absence of flicker, are fundamental elements for correct television shooting.

Installation director: Jean-Pierre Joubert.
