One of the biggest budget line items for out-of-state productions shooting in Alaska is shipping grip and electric equipment from Los Angeles or Seattle. Freight costs, transit time, customs for international productions, and the risk of damage in transit all add up fast.
We source full commercial-grade G&E packages locally in Alaska. LED lighting from Arri, Aputure, Litepanels, Astera, and Dedo. Full HMI packages. Complete grip support including a 2-ton grip truck, combo stands, C-stands, flags, frames, rags, and speed rail. Dana Dolly, doorway dolly, and track systems. Car rigging kits. Motorola radios. Generators. Monitors. Batteries. The infrastructure your gaffer and key grip expect to see when they walk onto a commercial set.
Your visiting crew brings their creative vision. The G&E package is waiting for them when they land.

Tell us what your gaffer and key grip need. We build a G&E package quote based on your lighting plan, shoot schedule, and location requirements. Equipment is prepped, tested, and delivered to your set location or staged at basecamp. Our local grip and electric crew can operate the package, or your visiting G&E team can work with gear they're already familiar with from their LA and New York stages.
For productions where the local inventory doesn't cover a specific fixture or specialty item, we coordinate shipments from Anchorage, Seattle, or LA rental houses and manage the freight logistics end to end.
G&E packages integrate with our full service producer engagements and are included as standard line items in our AICP-format bids.
No more sitting on the sidelines. Stand out with compelling, story-driven visuals from the Last Frontier.
