Sparks
The electrical members of the crew are called sparks. With them come the lights, trucks full of huge lamps, flags, poly, reflectors, dimmer boards, HMI's, Kinos, transformers, jumpers, bubbles, trace frames, gels, scrims, quarter, half and full blue, kilometres of gaffer tape and red, blondes and brunettes in days gone by.
Here are a few of our sparks on the pick-up shoot:

A wide shot so you can see some of their work
