Barbizon Lighting Continues Legacy of Education at the 2019 NAB Show

Complete with a new booth design to facilitate in-booth education, Barbizon Lighting will expand their NAB Show expo-floor educational sessions this year in central hall booth #C5049 from April 8-11 in Las Vegas.

"The new booth design will allow us to have client meetings, and presentations at the same time," says marketing director Tobin Neis. "The addition of a video wall will also allow us to tell stories better and show lighting applications currently used in studios."

This year's presenter lineup includes Bill Holshevnikoff, an Emmy Award-winning director of photography, lighting designer, and educator, Holshevnikoff has been lighting and shooting broadcast, corporate, and documentary programming for over 30 years.

Holshevnikoff's two presentations will be "Making People Look Great in 4K -- Increased Resolution Means Increased Detail" and "Get Light Right Where You Need It -- Light and Spill Control On Location and in Studio."

The second presenter is Jim Sippel. A two-time Emmy Award-winning lighting director, Sippel has over 25 years' experience in the entertainment industry.

Sippel's two presentations are "Found Space Working Studios -- You want me to put a working studio where?" and "Lighting for Worship Broadcasts -- Balancing in-person experience vs. Camera Needs."

The third presenter is Lonnie Juli. After almost four decades working in network television production, Juli might be expected to take a "seen it all, done it all" attitude. Instead, he strives to integrate traditional high standards with state-of-the-art technology to provide the highest quality results, while minimizing cost and complexity. Juli's resume runs the gamut from small market affiliates to network television productions for CBS, NBC, PBS, FOX, and others. He has designed for News, Sports, Daytime TV, Lifestyle, Talk Shows, and several Presidential debates.
