New in to Bristol Production Van: the Lighting Package.

Featuring high-powered LED lighting and a vast range of modifiers, our Lighting Package offers a cheaper alternative to our Base Production Package, with a greater focus on lighting.

Headed up by our 1400W MG1200Bi bi-colour LED Spotlight from with the GF14 14” Fresnel, which is roughly equivalent to a 3K HMI Fresnel, and joined by fixtures from Aputure, Nanlite and Arri - our lighting package ensures the lighting needs of low to mid budget shoots are met, no matter the conditions.

Enjoy our vast range of stands, modifiers and rigging equipment included in the Package, giving you control of your lighting.

Available to book now. Message us or visit the site and navigate to the “Hire” section.

Just 4 days left until our first project is chosen for our inaugural Trans Stories Fund - with selected trans-led projects gaining full access to our Production Van and Base Production Van Package.

After the first project is chosen, we will keep selecting projects to support on a case-by-case basis, within 4-6 weeks of application. We aim to support at least a project per month, but due to the nature of the industry and our limited resource as an independently owned small business, each month will vary. Applications will automatically carry over, so there’s no need to reapply after the first project is chosen.

There’s no rules on what projects can apply. We firmly believe in uncensored, authentic art - so no matter what you want to create, Bristol Production Van will support you. Our kit is curated to meet the needs of a large variety of productions - from films, music videos and documentaries, to live events, experimental art pieces and podcasts.

Apply via our site, or by emailing our secure proton mail.

ATTENTION WRITERS & FILMMAKERS!

We’re proud to launch our first Trans Stories Fund, giving Trans writers, filmmakers and creatives access to the kit they need, for the projects that struggle to get commercial or institutional funding. This follows our successful Marginalised Filmmaker Fund held under our banner last year - with one short playing at BFI Flare 👀

At launch, we’re offering 3 days of free hire of our Production Van, plus our FULL Base Production Van kit list, to successful applicants filming their project in Bristol. You’ll also have 3 free days of Gaffer or Spark services from our founder, .dop

We’re in talks to add more benefits to successful applicants, like screenings and mentorship- so if you’re an organisation or individual who is an ally to trans people and wants to get involved, please join us!

Comment “TRANS JOY” and we’ll DM you a link to the page with the full Kit List, FAQs, T&Cs and Application Form. Or check out the 🔗 in the usual place!
