01 / Project brief

What the project required.

The challenge

Market.live and VERB had purchased a five-ton truck of grip and lighting equipment without knowing exactly what it contained or whether it worked. JAZ identified discontinued Kino Flo fixtures, many missing their required power supplies, shortly after the manufacturer had discarded its remaining stock.

The client wanted the fixtures off floor stands without installing a conventional permanent grid. The wooden rafters, multiple production environments, remote power supplies, and unfinished engineering room all had to be addressed.

The approach

JAZ cataloged the equipment and used its dealer network to locate compatible discontinued power supplies on the East Coast. A custom chain-suspended system mounted fixtures from the wooden rafters while preserving an open studio floor.

The power supplies were relocated to the adjacent engineering room, which JAZ repainted, reorganized, and branded. Lighting, wireless systems, audio, video routing, monitoring, and switching were connected across the production campus.

Original scope

  • Legacy Kino Flo assessment, restoration, and discontinued power-supply sourcing
  • Custom chain-suspended lighting support and wooden-rafter mounting
  • Remote power supplies, electrical coordination, and studio lighting design
  • Engineering-room renovation, painting, branding, organization, routing, monitoring, switching, wireless systems, and commissioning
