Equipment Planning Services

Here is the breakdown. We plan production gear packages that account for both creative need and the hard logistics of moving kit around Indonesia. Our team builds camera, lighting, grip and support lists with local rental houses in Jakarta and Bali, the two centres where pro stock is genuinely deep. We identify early what must be supplemented from Jakarta to the regions or, for high-end or pro gear, from Singapore and the wider region.

Here is what that looks like on the ground. We schedule freight against domestic flights and boats so gear reaches remote unit bases on Komodo, Raja Ampat or Sumatra ahead of the crew, and we advise on ATA carnets for short-term gear import. This Indonesia accepts. Power planning is part of each package: mains supply is 230V at 50Hz. Remote locations need power packs and distribution sized correctly. Where a brief calls for aerial work, we factor in that drones are regulated by the Directorate General of Civil Aviation under the Ministry of Transportation, so the kit list and the permit plan stay aligned.

Here is how the picture comes together. Indonesia's defining production challenge is the archipelago itself, around 17,000 islands spread across three time zones, and gear planning lives or dies by respecting it. Jakarta and Bali give mature rental ecosystems. But reaching Komodo National Park, the marine wilderness of Raja Ampat in West Papua, or the rainforests of Sumatra means flights, boats and careful freight sequencing, with no nearby rental house to cover a gap.

Here is what we have to work with. The tropical equatorial climate adds genuine pressure on gear: constant heat and humidity demand moisture protection, dehumidified storage and disciplined upkeep, above all for shoots that move between dive locations and volcanic terrain. A growing domestic industry and heavy streaming investment have improved the quality and range of locally ready kit, narrowing the need to import. The smart way still plans the package and its journey together. We do exactly that, so the right gear is on set, working, when the light arrives.
