Los Angeles Rental Houses?

[Michael Solomon]

Hey guys,

So I think I might take some of the advice I've gotten and try to get a job at a rental house. The only problem is, the only two I'm familiar with (my sad little low budget world) is Wooden Nickel & Sammys, the both of which I don't think would be conducive to what I'm trying to get out of the job.

Could you guys fill me in on some of the other rental houses in the LA area that would be a good stepping stone to AC work?

Try Abel Cine.

Wooden Nickel is a grip and lighting house... won't find many camera people coming through there... and Samy's is the worst rental place ever. Don't get me started they are awful.

Here is my list of camera Houses in LA (no particular order):

Panavision
Clairmont
Otto Nemenz
The Camera House
Keslow Camera
Alternative Rentals
T-Stop
BlackList Productions
Abel Cine
Hollywood Camera (not that good, IMO)
Division Camera (formerly indie rentals, nuff said)
Radiant Images
Birns and Sawyer (outdated, IMO)
