Junior Level Grip and Electric Package Recommendation

This is Film Operations recommendation for an Intermediate Level Narrative Production.

This film would require at least one person in the Grip/Electric Department as a Gaffer/ Key Grip Swing.  It is highly recommended to have two separate people for each department as the Gaffer (Electric) to set up lights and run electrical cables and a Key Grip to mold the light and assist with camera moves. We would encourage you to have an optional Best Boy Grip/Electric Swing that would assist both department heads, as well as organizing your G&E Departments staging area.

We also recommend adding on the different accessories available for the Amaran 2-pc RGBW 300 LED Point-Source Kit. See below for accessory options. DO NOT FORGET STINGERS!

Please see the Narrative Modality Section for different add ons and alternatives. Make sure to ensure the add on or alternative products are eligible for the Intermediate Project Level by using the search tool or seeing the Additional Information section.

Description

Amaran 2-pc RGBW 300 LED Point-Source Kit Accessory Add-ons:

  • Aputure Mini Lightdome SE
    • A nice basic softbox, that has a smooth wrap around subjects. This is our most commonly requested item.
  • Aputure Lantern
    • Want a soft overhead light with tons of control? A Lantern will work great on a C-Stand. Make sure to always double check a lights safety before going above talent or crew.
  • Aputure Lantern 90
    • Need a bigger spill on your overhead light? Upgrade to the 90. Make sure to always double check a lights safety before going above talent or crew.
  • Aputure Fresnel
    • The Amaran is a ‘flamethrower’ with the amount of light it can produce, however, you sacrifice directional control of the light. Add the fresnel to control it through spotting or flooding.
  • Aputure Spotlight Mount Package
    • Need more control than the fresnel? Add the spotlight package where you can use the 19º, 26º, or 36º lenses to brighten your scene.
