Our lighting crew and equipment fleet are fully equipped to serve them.

Gaffer, Spark & Lighting Crew Hire
Engage an experienced gaffer with sparks, best boys and riggers — crew only or with full equipment and transport. Our crew work seamlessly with your DP across period drama, commercials and music videos shot throughout Kent.
Location Lighting
Kent's coastal beauty comes with salt air and sudden channel squalls. We supply IP-rated weather-sealed LED punch lights, heavy sandbagging kits, FO stands and storm protection covers for beach and cliff setups, plus 1.2K HMIs and daylight LEDs through heavy frost and muslin for volumetric interior shafts at Victorian dockyard locations.
