Hi, I was just wondering what people take to there shoots bar there standered equipment.

I take:


Gaffer Tape
Electronic Tape
Green Spray Paint
Swiss army knife
Fishing Line
Super Glue
Torch
3.5" Mini monitor
Rubber Strap wrenchSo what extras do you take with you

Most of the above, plus black garbage bags, extra batteries, and the charger. Plus i have a leatherman instead of a swiss army knife, but same concept. I also sometimes take my laptop, and always my slate.

I did say apart from the usual equipment

I always carry around a "Napster" production bag. In it I ALWAYS carry:

• Super glue
• A red shoelace
• Sweat wipes
• A First Aid kit
• Business Cards
• A quarter (for screwing and unscrewing XLR adapters)
• Sweat wipes (for actors on-camera)
• Makeup and cotton balls
• Chewing gum (you'd be amazed how hard it is to act next to an actor with foul breath)

In this bag I also carry a binder with all the paperwork of the movie, in case anything comes up on set.

I also take extension cords (depending on the location) and extra batteries, a head cleaner, and extra tapes.

I'm a simple man:

Water
Knife
Batteries

I don't carry around gaff tape unless I know I'm gonna need it.

Some times we take our [cheap-o] stedicams.
Sometimes a knife
pretty much always take water
script
filters
extra tape(s)
remote control for camera

When I get another battery that will be on the list too.

What about lighting equipment? Thats pretty important right? But also very heavy and hard to carry around? I would suggest that you get your friends together and organise who is bringing what so joe blogs will bring all the food i will bring all the paperwork and tom smith can take the camera that way u dont end up with duplicates and no one ends up carrying to much!
