Mixed lighting on location. Fluorescents overhead. A window you can't control. Now what?
You show up, find your frame, and then realise the ambient light is working against you. Color casts from overhead fixtures, shifting daylight, safety lights you can't turn off. One light can't solve that. Two can.
The kit that matches any location
Two powerful full-color LEDs and versatile modifiers give you the control needed to produce professional video consistently—no matter of your creative vision on set.
Powerful, color-accurate continuous light
The L600C provides consistent, high-quality light you can trust for professional video production.
Soft, cinematic key light
The 4' Octa delivers flattering, natural light ideal for interviews, talking heads, and studio content.
Depth and separation in every shot
Two strip softboxes make it easy to add rim or background light, giving your videos a more polished, professional look.
Grows with your creative journey
Since this kit lives within the Profoto ecosystem, you can build on it as your production needs evolve.

The filmmakers
A lean crew with powerful storytelling
Melanie and Ryan run Flying Giant Productions out of Denver, Colorado. In the genre they work in, documentary and unscripted branded content, they're always working with real people, not actors. That makes them sensitive to what they bring into a space. The essential video kit gives them professional two-light control in a compact, unintimidating package that lets subjects be themselves.
“Being able to adjust our lights to the existing light and then adjust the camera to compensate gives us a clean image with ambient light. When the color stays consistent, everything downstream is easier.”
— Ryan, Flying Giant Productions
