Color Effects Filter
Square
From the esteemed brand Rosco, comes the Roscolux Mayan Sun, a 20x24" Color Effects Lighting Filter that bathes your scenes in a vibrant, warm, and radiant salmon hue, reminiscent of a tropical island sunset. This filter is not just a color enhancer, but a tool for creating captivating backlights and accent colors, perfect for achieving warm tonal effects in your film or video projects.
The Roscolux Mayan Sun filter boasts a light transmission rate of 52% and a filter factor of -0.9 stops, providing a bright and colorful illumination that can significantly transform your visual storytelling.
What sets Roscolux filters apart is their unique manufacturing process. Crafted through a tri-extrusion process, the colored layer is sealed between two microscopically thin layers of clear film. This innovative approach minimizes dye migration, thereby extending the filter's effective lifespan, especially under hot theatrical lights.
Known as "Supergel" in international markets, Roscolux is the most widely used filter range globally, thanks to its superior quality and durability. Over 65% of the Roscolux line, including the Mayan Sun filter, is made from co-extruded polycarbonate plastic, while the rest is deep dyed polyester. This composition is a stark contrast to ordinary color filters, which are merely surface coated on clear polyester plastic film, making them susceptible to heat damage and physical abrasion.
The Roscolux Mayan Sun filter is available in sheets of 20in. X 24in. (50cm x 61cm), making it a versatile choice for a wide range of lighting applications. For larger requirements, the Cinelux line of filters offers rolls of 48in. X 25ft. (122cm x 7.62m).
In essence, the Roscolux Mayan Sun filter is not just a lighting accessory, but a tool for creative expression, designed to enhance your film and video projects with its rich, warm, and vibrant color effects.
