Our services for studios in the cinematic, commercial and TV film segment

Light, video & sound planning

We draw up technical and logistical plans for all the required event technology.

Timely planning contributes significantly to a successful event. We support you from the initial concept and costing to the implemented event.

Our experienced team plans the necessary technology as well as the chronological and logistical processes, in coordination with your people who are involved in the project. The required information is recorded in relevant drawings, plans, packing lists, flowcharts, etc., so that each party can see what, when, where and how something happens, as well who is responsible and how they are involved. 

Rigging planning

We carry out professional technical calculations and planning for all floor and ceiling loads.

Detailed planning of loads and suspension points requires a special kind of discipline and compliance with all rules and regulations. Our internal and external specialists have many years of expertise and know exactly how to hang or place static and dynamic loads, taking into account the permissible load distribution at the location.

Our rigging planners create the necessary plans and CAD drawings, and ensure that all the???static proof/structural analysis??? required for the building inspection and for safety is available. 

Rigging

Our riggers are there to help wherever there are loads to be borne. An event without rigging is hardly conceivable today – and not just at on-stage events.

Rigging refers to the hanging or positioning of loads. Riggers are responsible for the proper assembly and disassembly of the load-carrying devices and the loads attached to them. Static and dynamic loads are taken into account, along with the maximum load capacities of the suspension points and the overall construction, and the permissible distribution of loads. In outside areas, wind loads must also be considered.

The chief rigger is also responsible for ensuring that all necessary structural analyses have been obtained and are adhered to. 

Scaffolding

Events in confined spaces mainly call for stages and platforms – outdoors, tents and scaffolding are also used.

Stage and scaffolding systems are usually modular and can therefore be used very flexibly and in almost any size. Roofed areas encounter physical limits much earlier, as spans and weather conditions play a major role in the structural analysis. Let us advise you. Our stage and scaffolding experts are happy to help. 

Broadcast lighting

PRG has the equipment and expertise to provide broadcast-suitable lighting for any event.

With our extensive materials pool, we can handle both indoor and outdoor productions of all sizes. Our equipment ranges from small and large artificial lighting units to daylight PARs, from step lighting and floodlights to 7 kW xenon searchlights and 100 kW SoftSuns.

Show lighting

Any stage lighting that serves not merely to provide illumination is often referred to as “show lighting” or “effect lighting.” This can, for example, be stage lighting, or the lighting effects for a multimedia (sound & lights) show. The illumination of decoration is generally referred to as "deco lighting," but light itself can also be used as decoration to create the desired mood.

Moving lights, LED lights, Space Cannons and many other specialty lamps are often used in show and deco lighting. PRG has the world’s most extensive pool of equipment in the area of show and deco lighting. 

Film lighting

Movie lighting ranges from battery indicator lights to 100,000-watt SoftSuns. PRG can provide all the products commonly used in film lighting.

Cinegate, our subsidiary specializing in film industry services, provides typical movie lighting. PRG supplies effects lighting, rigging, and lighting equipment for shooting at major events. If you would like to discuss a music video, advertising, television or movie project, you’re in good hands with us.

Video technology

Cameras, vision mixers, media servers, screens, projections, video walls – we not only provide the required technology, but also the appropriate crew of technicians and creative people for your project.

Video technology processes range from the production of a video signal, for example by a camera or the transmission of a computer signal, to editing using an editing program or a video mixer, to the recording or playback. Playback involves screens, projectors, LED walls or other (dis)play devices. Let us advise you! 

LED screens

From 3mm indoor to 40mm outdoor, black face or semi-transparent – we have the latest LED technology and know how to handle it.

Each LED system has its advantages – the choice depends on factors such as viewing distance, content, resolution, contrast and brightness. The right selection not only guarantees the desired result, but also helps prevent unnecessary costs. For instance, it doesn’t make sense to use a high-resolution system at an open-air festival.

Talk to our video specialists if you need sound advice on selecting the system for your event.
