On October 17th, 2025, Northwestern Athletics brought the energy to a whole new level at Welsh-Ryan Arena in Evanston, Illinois. The university’s basketball program teamed up with Laser Light Company to produce an electrifying hype video shoot that set the stage for the upcoming season. With the help of four 6-watt Kvant Club Max lasers, the arena became a creative playground where light, motion, and athletic passion collided.
Creating the Perfect Atmosphere
From the moment the shoot began, the focus was clear — capture the intensity of Northwestern basketball in a whole new light. The production team worked hand-in-hand with the laser technicians to design the perfect visual balance. Each beam cut through the arena air with precision, accenting the players’ movements and amplifying the emotion behind every shot and pass.
The goal wasn’t just to film a video. It was to create a visual experience that reflected the team’s drive and determination. Through careful timing, color coordination, and laser positioning, the arena transformed into a cinematic stage worthy of a championship story.
Precision Meets Passion
The Kvant Club Max 6-watt lasers played a major role in elevating the production quality. Known for their brightness and sharp beam clarity, they were programmed to highlight key moments during filming — from dynamic dribbles to dramatic dunks. Each cue synced perfectly with lighting and camera direction, creating sequences that felt alive and powerful.
Behind the scenes, the Laser Light Company crew ensured that every effect was not only visually stunning but also completely safe. From setup to final take, attention to detail guided every move. This balance of creativity and caution allowed the shoot to flow seamlessly while maintaining top-tier production standards.
