  1. Hello folks, I'm a cinematographer and gaffer based in London, prepping for a possible low budget independent feature in the US during late July/ early August, shooting on HDV, but pushing for HD. We'll be shooting in a quiet part of Pennsylvania. My question to all you US based cinematographers/gaffers is: What are the "good" lighting rental houses I can go to to secure the lights & grip gear I'll be needing.. I assume it works the same way over there as it does here, you strike up relationships with the reps at one or 2 houses and that gets you a better deal than cold calling around.. At this point I'm lucky enough to command some serious discounts - on rare occasions I've blagged substantial lighting packages for free! Unfortunately we'll be at square one in this situation, so I could really use some help. The relationships I have with the guys I usually work with here have been built over years, and obviously iin this instance I don't have that to fall back on.. I'm looking for friendly, understanding rental houses that'll appreciate our situation & give us a fair price & has a good selection of kit. I guess it would be helpful if they were based in PA, but maybe that isn't a big deal over there in the US? If you could give me some company names & web details and also the name of the guys that you think could help us.. Let me know if you need more info about my situation, the lighting wishlist is currently being compiled.. Hope some of you can point me in the right direction.. thanks a lot people I would really appreciate any feedback at all.. Genki McClure[/font]
  2. Hey guys, I was wondering if anyone knew where I could possibly download icons of lights for floorplans? If you've ever read a copy of ASC magazine you'll know the kind of thing I'm talking about, little icons of redheads, blondes, maxibrutes etc.. They must get them from somewhere, but God knows where.. An extensive & exhaustive google search yielded nothing, so although it's not a matter of life and death, it would be really cool if anyone could point me in the right direction. Thanks fellas and ladies. Genki McClure
