Dear GeoExpat,
This is my first post here! There will certainly be more!
Today I'm inquiring about the rental of equipment. I'll be doing a short film, and will be looking to rent some lighting equipment - not super high-end stuff, as this will mainly be an enthusiast project. Oh, and some other things (listed below).
I'm in pre-production right now, so I'd like to best prepare myself ready for shooting once it comes around.
I'll be using a Canon EOS 5D Mark II as well as a Canon EOS 7D for the shoots.
I'll be looking to rent:
- Lighting equipment
- Fluid head tripod
- Some type of steadicam or something that'll get me alright to shoot on the move (I believe they would have to fit DSLR's)
- Rail system or some ingenious thingamabob that can let me pan with precision
- Audio / Sound capturing device with XLR input
- Mic
- Boom pole (maybe)
I'll be using these for no more than a few days.
Most shooting will occur around Sai Wan Ho. I'd prefer a rental place on Hong Kong Island, but not necessary. If you know any place that can help with anything, please do let me know!
