Abstract
A cyc light assembly comprising a base having a front opening, a lighting element supported by the base, a first reflector (e.g., a specular reflector) positioned on a rear side of the lighting element, and a lens positioned in the front opening. The lens includes a plurality of cylinder lens portions that preferably are substantially parallel to each other and substantially horizontally oriented. A diffuser can be positioned to cover the front opening. In one embodiment, a central axis of the lighting element intersects the first reflector (e.g., at a midsection). A recycling reflector can be positioned in front of the lens, and side reflectors can be positioned on opposing sides of the lighting element. Preferably, the side reflectors are substantially planar and are angled to diverge from each other toward the front direction and toward an upward direction, away from the lighting element.
