Underwater Lighting

Submersible lighting for your Peruvian underwater production.

Underwater lighting requires specialized waterproof fixtures to illuminate subjects beneath the surface. Peru's Pacific coastline at Lima, Paracas, and Mancora—where the cold Humboldt current meets warmer northern waters—offers dramatically different conditions, while the Amazon basin presents unique low-visibility freshwater shoots that demand specialized fixtures and rigging.

We supply professional submersible lighting systems and qualified dive crews across Lima, Cusco, Arequipa, Trujillo, and Iquitos. Our team coordinates dive-rated LED and HMI fixtures, battery systems, and experienced underwater gaffers familiar with both the cold Pacific and Amazon river environments.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

What underwater lighting options do you offer?

We offer LED and HMI submersible lights rated for various depths, suited to the cold Humboldt-current waters off Lima and Paracas, the warmer water at Mancora, and the low-visibility Amazon. LED units run cool; HMI delivers powerful daylight-balanced output.

How deep can you light underwater?

Our equipment is rated for various depths—many units to 100m or more. Depth requirements depend on the specific production needs, and we select appropriate equipment accordingly.

Do you provide dive-qualified lighting technicians?

Yes, our underwater lighting technicians are qualified divers experienced in Peru's cold Pacific and Amazon environments. They can operate lights underwater while maintaining proper dive protocols.

What about color temperature underwater?

Water absorbs red light quickly with depth. We use daylight-balanced lights and can add filters to compensate. Color correction is easier with proper lighting than trying to fix in post.

Can you light large underwater areas?

Yes, we can deploy multiple units for large-scale underwater lighting setups. This requires careful planning for power, positioning, and safety but enables dramatic underwater scenes.

What Peruvian waters do you work in?

We work the cold Pacific at Lima and Paracas, the warmer northern coast at Mancora, and the Amazon river system around Iquitos. We also operate in pool stages and water tanks at Lima studios for controlled scenes.
