Crew / Gaffer and grip
Hire a gaffer and grip crew in San Francisco and Northern California
Lighting and grip is where a shoot looks expensive or doesn't. A gaffer shapes the light, a key grip controls it and keeps the set safe, and both arrive with a truck that already has what they need.
What they handle
- Lighting design and setup with your DP
- Shaping, diffusion, and negative fill
- Frames, overheads, and rigging
- Power distribution and cable safety
- Fast resets between setups
The kit
Most grip and electric bookings pair with our grip truck: Aputure and Amaran lighting, frames up to 12×12, flags, stands, sandbags, and stingers. See the gear list
Questions about booking
Do they come with lighting and grip gear?
Yes. Book them with our grip truck and the gear arrives with the people who know it.
Can you light an office or conference room without making it look like one?
That's most of what corporate shoots are. Bi-color fixtures, negative fill, and background separation do the work.
