Then come to our BronColor Para Demo w/ Jessica Keller!
Tues 28 March 2017, 2pm - 7pm
If you have heard or seen how beautiful the light can be from a Parabolic Reflector such as a Briese, and are interested in trying one on your next project, then you need to come to the BronColor Parabolic demo at S1.

S1 is hosting a interactive Demo with a range of 4 different Para sizes. We carry the full line and accessories in Rentals, and can supply with HMI, Tungsten and Strobe.
Jessica Keller who works for BronColor in Europe as a factory trainer, will be flying in to give the demo, and S1's Rental team who have 15 years of experience shooting with, and renting these products, will also be on hand.
Come and join us for a drink + bites and get to know the BronColor Para system first hand. Please RSVP Below.
