A trip around the world with ARRI

Dear ARRI community,

From the French Riviera to the Indian subcontinent, ARRI products, services, and solutions are being utilized to bring creative visions to life. At Cannes Film Festival, our equipment was behind the scenes of the vast majority of feature films. Our latest article comes from India where DP Adil Afsar shares his experience using ARRI tools on the comedy “Madgaon Express.” ARRI Rental spoke to cinematographer Eve Cohen about crafting the look of “The Other Zoey” with ALEXA Mini LF and DNA LF lenses. Our Tech Talks for SkyPanel X provide you with new insights on our versatile LED panel, and you can discover why ARRI’s CPO program should always be your first choice for second-hand equipment. Also this month, ARRI Solutions is working with Creative Technology to provide Nottingham Trent University with a cutting-edge Virtual Production suite.

Thank you for being a part of our journey. Stay connected, stay inspired!
