On Location
Lighting and Grip Services in New York
Lighting a production in New York calls for flexibility. A rooftop bar in the Meatpacking District at dusk, a narrow tenement apartment in the East Village, and a sprawling warehouse in the Brooklyn Navy Yard each pose very different challenges. Our gaffer and lighting team scout each setting ahead of time, then design lighting schemes that serve the director's vision and fit the limits of the location. Our grip team brings the support gear — stands, flags, frames, and rigging — needed to shape and control light at every scale of production.
LED lighting systems form the core of our location kit, since they put out high light with low power draw and run quietly near sound-sensitive setups. Grip services range from basic stand packages to full rigging builds for complex multi-light layouts. For exterior work in Prospect Park, on the bridges over the East River, or in outer-borough spots where mains access is tight, our portable power solutions let teams run free of the building or location supply.
