FAQ
Our Lighting Network
What does a gaffer do on set?
The gaffer is the head of the electrical/lighting department, responsible for executing the DP's lighting vision. They design lighting setups, manage the electric crew, coordinate equipment, and ensure safe power distribution throughout the production.
What crew positions are in a lighting department?
A full lighting department includes: Gaffer (department head), Best Boy Electric (gaffer's assistant, manages crew and equipment), Electricians/Sparks (set up and operate lights), and on larger productions, Rigging Gaffers and Generator Operators.
Do your lighting crews bring their own equipment?
Crew and equipment are typically separate. We can coordinate equipment packages from Brazilian rental houses to complement your crew booking. Some gaffers have personal equipment for smaller productions.
How many electricians do I need for my production?
Crew size depends on production scale: small shoots may need just a gaffer, medium productions typically need gaffer plus best boy and 1-2 electricians, while larger productions require full departments with rigging crews.
Can your lighting crews work with international DPs?
Yes. Our gaffers are experienced working with international cinematographers and understand international terminology, techniques, and workflow expectations. Many are fluent English Brazilian-English.
Do you provide generators and power distribution?
We coordinate generator hire and distribution equipment through our rental partners. Generator operators can be included in crew packages for productions requiring significant power infrastructure.
