5| And finally… don’t forget about spares!
If you or your crew have a piece of kit go down, the time for replacing it – even if it’s a cable – is likely be greatly increased, so it might be a good idea to order in advance your most commonly replaced items.
If any of these work with your production, or you’d like to discuss anything further, please get in touch with our sales team… we’re standing by to help!
