Patent Number: 11421859 
Title: Diffused Light Focusing Method for Use in Film, Television, and Photographic Media 
Abstract:

A lighting assembly includes a Fresnel lens disposed at a controllable or predeterminable distance from a diffuse light source. Relatively small cutter cards are disposable between the diffuse light source and the Fresnel lens for generating various shadow effects on a photography, television or film production set. The light assembly enables a soft lighting of foreground subjects, typically actors, with a light intensity that stays relatively constant regardless of the distance of the subjects from the composite light source, specifically the Fresnel lens.
