Gaffer & Lighting Services Poland
Pro gaffers and lighting crews with expertise in LED, HMI, and tungsten \t\t\t\t\t\tsystems. From intimate interviews to large-scale nighttime shoots across Poland.
Here is how this works in practice. The gaffer is the chief lighting technician, responsible for designing and executing the lighting plan set up by the director of photography. In Poland, where shoots shoot in varied environments from Warsaw studios to locations across Kraków and beyond, skilled gaffers must handle differing power infrastructure, weather conditions, and local gear availability from Polish rental houses.
Here is the short of it. Our NeedAFixer network connects you with skilled gaffers and grips across Poland who work seamlessly with your cinematography team. Our pros are skilled in studio and location lighting, rigging for challenging environments, and managing the electrical and mechanical systems that modern shoots demand—with strong connections to Polish gear suppliers and rental facilities.

On Location
Polish gaffers and grips translate a DP's lighting design into reality, working within a camera culture of global standing celebrated at EnergaCAMERIMAGE in Toruń.
Here is how this works in practice. We supply gaffers and grips who realise the lighting and camera-support plan on Polish shoots. Our gaffers lead the electrical department, rig and run lighting to the DP's design, and manage power and distribution. Our grips handle dollies, cranes, camera mounts and rigging, and build the sites a shot needs. They set up with the DP, camera ops and the wider crew, and they draw on the well-equipped lighting and grip rental houses in Warsaw, Kraków and Łódź. We brief incoming crews on the project's package and the demands of Polish locations, from period interiors to exterior work in the mountains. For global shoots, the gaffer and grip teams are fluent in global workflows.
Here is the short of it. Poland's lighting and grip craft is strong and well resourced. The country's top cinematography heritage — the custom celebrated at EnergaCAMERIMAGE and trained at the National Film School in Łódź — has built electrical and grip departments set to executing sophisticated lighting design. Today's rental infrastructure across the major production cities supplies today's lighting and grip kit. The global service work drawn by the 30% PISF cash rebates keeps crews skilled with the demands of features, series and commercials. At competitive złoty rates, Polish gaffers and grips give a DP a department able to deliver top-tier images.

FAQ
Our Lighting Network
What does a gaffer do on set?
Here is the breakdown. The gaffer is the head of the electrical/lighting department, responsible for executing the DP's lighting vision. They design lighting setups, manage the electric crew, set up gear, and make sure safe power distribution across the production.
What crew positions are in a lighting department?
A full lighting department has: Gaffer (department head), Best Boy Electric (gaffer's assistant, manages crew and gear), Electricians/Sparks (set up and operate lights), and on larger shoots, Rigging Gaffers and Generator Operators.
Do your lighting crews bring their own equipment?
Crew and gear are mostly separate. We can set up gear packages from Polish rental houses to complement your crew booking. Some gaffers have personal gear for smaller shoots.
How many electricians do I need for my production?
Crew size depends on production scale: small shoots may need just a gaffer, medium shoots mostly need gaffer plus best boy and 1-2 electricians, while larger shoots need full departments with rigging crews.
Can your lighting crews work with international DPs?
Yes. Our gaffers are skilled working with global cinematographers and know global terminology, techniques, and workflow expectations.
Do you provide generators and power distribution?
We set up power packs hire and distribution gear through our Polish rental partners. Power packs operators can be had in crew packages for shoots needing major power infrastructure.
