The challenges presented by film and television are unique. From making sure the lighting is right, to power generation, to on-set communication—if it is not done perfectly, it is not worth doing at all. A poor or inexperienced designer or coordinator can ruin any film or television experience.
Staged Right employees have years of experience producing televised events and film. We know how to make it work, what needs to be done, and how to ensure that everything looks its best. This eliminates very costly mistakes, and working with highly trained professionals ensures that you do not waste time and money fixing the mistakes your production coordinator made. It also ensures that your final product is amazing, and that you convey the proper message to your audience.
Staged Right employs the best technicians in the business, and we also have access to the entire AirStar line of lighting balloons. Airstars have proven themselves in the film/television industry for their ability to provide soft, elegant, beautiful light over a large area, a look that translates beautifully on film. These light sources were featured prominently in the hit television series 24, as well as movies including Titanic, Pirates of the Caribbean, and Mr. and Mrs. Smith. We are proud to be the exclusive AirStar dealer for the entire Mid-Atlantic region.

We have nearly everything that you need in-house, and our connections in the industry ensure that we get you everything we do not have in house for a great price. We can, and will, create the perfect lighting design, take care of all of your audio needs, and provide walkie-talkies/ClearComm for clean, effective on-set communication. Additionally, Staged Right can also handle all of your logistical needs, such as power generation, audio playback, restroom trailers, staff trailers, and catering. One phone call to us is all it takes.

Product Education Corner: AirStars for Film and Television
Motion picture cameras need a lot of light to film a scene. Unfortunately, a “more is better” approach seldom works the way one might hope it would. Direct, focused light causes glare – the camera’s worst enemy. The problem now becomes how do you get the amount of light needed to shoot your scene without ruining it with a harsh glare? The solution is simple – AirStar lighting balloons.
Ranging in size from three to twenty-seven feet in diameter, AirStar lighting balloons illuminate large areas with ease, emitting a beautiful, soft, glare-free white light. Not only is the quality of light better, but they require less power than conventional lighting sources. They are dimmable, which allows you to control the amount of light you want. AirStars are also more portable than other lighting options. When collapsed, AirStar balloons fit in cases comparable to carry-on luggage. No longer do you need to drive numerous trucks all over the landscape to transport unwieldy light towers. Some AirStars can perched on tripods, some can be tethered to the ground as they float above your set, others still can even float on water. The balloons can be colored, much in the same way conventional fixtures can be altered with gel, to achieve the same effect.
AirStars have been used on sets including Titanic, Pirates of the Caribbean, Mr. and Mrs. Smith, and the hit television series 24. Their beauty has not gone unnoticed by many other industries as well – AirStars are a popular illumination choice for construction sites, search and rescue teams, ski slopes, golf courses, movie premieres, trade shows, the Olympic Games, and more. Staged Right is proud to be the exclusive dealer of AirStar products for the entire east coast. Give us a call today and let us work with you to find the AirStar products that best meet you (and your camera’s) needs.
