R. Richard Hobbs / nyc.locationscout.us is now a qualified provider of Q-spheres HDRi 3d digital imaging services.

In association with LocationExchange, Locamundo, and Team Q-spheres qualified associates worldwide, we aim to build on our collective traditional location scouting and location management services skills and location archive assets and resources, going forward to provide an even greater range of services to not only keep pace with, but rather lead the way in rapidly changing digital imaging technologies for the still photography, motion pictures and 3-d gaming and animation industries.

Our current digital imaging system, developed by Locamundo founder Jo VanHove (Brussels, BE), provides the fastest currently-available methods for generating the highest-quality, full-dynamic-range, 3d, image-based lighting models (lightfields) and HDRi backgrounds. Our worldwide team of expert imaging and production professionals strives to keep abreast of and implement as we might find productive, new developments and available methods - adapting our imaging technologies to provide the highest-standard services and products with regard to not only imaging quality, but with considerations toward efficiency and cost-effectiveness as well.

Q-spheres can be hired to provide assignment-specific imaging and also maintains an archive of rights-managed post-ready high quality backgrounds and lightfields.

Please contact us for your next imaging project and let us show you how Q-spheres can work for you!

In November / December 2007, I travelled to the Lake Mead, NV area to meet with, along with the rest of Team Q-spheres USA, Jo VanHove and Frans VanDenBemd for an opportunity to familiarize ourselves with and use the Q-spheres digital capture system. During the course of the trip, not only did the American contingent of Team Q-spheres come away with a thorough training in Q-spheres technology and practices, the results of the actual Q-spheres sessions have provided us all with the valuable assets of beautiful lightspheres and backgrounds of the Nevada desert.
