A broadcast kit that one person can carry in.

Lighting and operating as one role. Fast to set up, fast to pack down, and easy for first-time contributors to be around.

Camera, lights, grip, audio and transport arrive together in the electric van.

What is a lighting cameraman?

One person designing the look, setting the light and shooting it — instead of a separate DoP, gaffer and operator. Broadcast-spec images from a footprint small enough for factual budgets and tight locations.
