New Production Gear

We've recently upgraded our production equipment so that we can better serve our clients and work more efficiently. One of our new items is the Magliner production cart.  The Magliner is the defacto standard in the TV & Film industry as the go-to workhorse cart.  These carts begin their life as convertible hand carts but can be infinitely customized to suit your needs.  Our cart features the 30" nose extension which holds two carpeted shelves.  The bottom shelf carries our Location Lighting kit, Digital DSLR kit, Medium Format film kitDIY Battery Packs and light modifiers.  The top shelf is our working surface and holds our MacBook Pro, Apple Cinema display and other digital capture equipment. Our light stands are strapped to the outside of the nose extension and the right side of the cart holds our grip equipment like extension cords, clamps, gaffer tape, etc.  We even have an oversized umbrella to keep the equipment dry on those rainy day shoots! Our new production cart reduces setup time by allowing us to move everything we need - all at once!

Styling chair
The other addition to our production gear is our new styling chair.  The old-style director's chair has now become a lightweight, folding aluminum chair with a foldout table and accessory bag provided by Earth Products.  The tall chair folds flat and becomes really easy to use on location. We've added a super-bright LED lamp so our stylist Ivonne can do her magic in the studio or on location in the lowest of light.  The foldout table holds her styling brushes and her cosmetic kit is easily located for quick applications.

All of this new equipment allows us to get a job done as quickly and easily as possible.
