Core team
“Tango-light.”
“The kind of light that makes the dead get up out of their graves and tango.”Stephen King, 1408
The phrase carries the quality that inspired the company name: light that does more than illuminate. It changes the feeling of an image and gives the ordinary an uncanny charge.
That became a useful shorthand for TangoLight Films — elegant, slightly strange, and rooted in mood, character and images that linger after the lights come up.
