OUR STORY
WHO ARE WE?
Lightbulb Grip and Electric Co is a rental house that caters to small-to-medium size shoots in NYC by teaching, building and encouraging a community of independent filmmakers from diverse backgrounds. We're big supporters of offering equitable opportunities to women, LGBT and marginalized community members, and helping get passion projects off the ground.
OUR BEGINNING
Adam and David started Lightbulb in 2016. They saw an overwhelming demand for hardware, paired with a lack of opportunities for young filmmakers to access clean, well-maintained equipment in NYC. Lightbulb started out in a mini-storage in Williamsburg, not far from our current warehouse. We have kept our early commitments to only send out equipment we are proud of.
CONSTANTLY GROWING
Since then, we have built the company up to offer over 5,000 rental items that comprise 20,000 barcodes. Our system is completely paperless and eco-friendly, which is great for producers trying to keep track of a busy shoot schedule and a lot of paperwork.
