Our Gearhead Grip & Electric Department offers a wide range of grip equipment from C stands to crank stands, JL Fisher dollies, cranes, sliders, jib arms, and car rigging equipment; all of which are meticulously maintained for your safety and efficient use on set. Our knowledgeable technicians can assist you in selecting the right equipment for your project.

Illuminate your project with our expansive inventory of lighting; and control the light with our deep inventory of flags, nets, and bounces and diffusion.

Gear for Any Size Production

Beyond equipment, we’ve got you covered with production support essentials and expendables. From tables, folding chairs, directors chairs, to walkie talkies, coolers, tents, heaters, wardrobe steamers, clothing racks, and much more. We’ve curated a selection to meet all your on-set needs, and we have a deep inventory of commonly used expendables – tape and gel, rope, and rigging equipment.
