The new Arri SkyPanel S60 Pro is the upgraded successor to its SkyPanel S60-C, offering important technical enhancements for improved workflows.
Virtual productions can now access its digital twin, an exact replica of the luminaire in Unreal Engine, which offers greater customisation and control across the production chain. This improves efficiency in pre-production, on set, and in post-production by allowing crews to quickly synchronise real-world and virtual camera and lighting systems for live collaboration.
Improved serviceability is supported using CloudIO software, by Arri subsidiary Claypaky, which offers streamlined diagnostics, remote assistance and comprehensive service.
To enhance flexibility and creativity on set, the SkyPanel S60 Pro has four LED zones for better pixel control, colour accuracy and optimal light distribution. It also offers improved low dimming performance for smooth, flicker-free dimming at lower light levels.
Following customer feedback, Arri also made improvements to the fixture’s handles, control panel position, and its connectivity and control options. It now has an integrated power supply to streamline setups and simplify transport and management with fewer cables and simplified rigging, while it stays the same size and weight as the S60-C. It also includes wireless CRMX and Bluetooth, DMX and Ethernet I/O.
