SCROLL TO EXPLORE

Cooke London

Cooke London is a space designed for cinematographers to come and test Cooke lenses. With a variety of the latest camera and lighting equipment it offers the perfect setting to demonstrate our lenses.

In the space cinematographers can change wall surface textures or swap backgrounds for Colorama papers or green screen, as one would in a photographic studio. The space has employed space-saving asymmetric lights on dimmer controls to evenly key the background and back light subjects. We also offer an array of leading lighting options using the latest LED technology that combine controlling colour options and lighting FX.

A DaVinci Resolve suite with HDR monitoring enables cinematographers to grade their transcoded material or produce LUT’s on site to review how Cooke lenses respond to their needs.

Cooke London also contains The Cooke Gallery: A tribute to the artistry of cinematography in motion pictures, where we will host different exhibitions ongoing.
