Abstract: Sustained Plasmatic Ionic Light, SPIL, is the first light source formulated to produce spectral energy content which matches the spectral response thresholds of electronic scan and CCD target cameras. SPIL Is a refined photoluminesence light source which maintains a high radiation flux density, has a stability which is equal to the finest incandescent light sources, and can be formulated to produce little or no ultra-violet or infrared spectral emissions. SPIL offers the first technological replacement for incandescent light sources that can contribute enhancement to television production as well as practical operational costs.

Paul Costa graduated from California State University at Sacramento. He has degrees in Communication Studies and Chemistry. In 1970 he was a Senior Quality Control Chemist and Lead Chemist on Continental Chemical's crystalline weightless lubricant devlopment for NASA. In 1979 Costa became a founding partner in ForeFront Communications, San Francisco, and produced numerous national industrial communication campaigns. He began consulting with media production companies in lighting and engineering installation in 1981. In 1985, Coste founded Videssence. As President, he directs the manufacturing and installation olf sustained plasmatic ionic sources for the broadcast industry.
