The one we use at the school has 22 sheets including diffusers, cine foil, CTOs, CTBs and many more but I was just wondering where can I find a cheap but decent gel kit? Thanks...

Qazi.
 
Check someplace like Filmtools (filmtools.com) for something like one of Lee Filters Gel Packs / Filter packs (bundles of around 36-48 assorted gels for $35-$50 or so)...?
 
depends what size you need really. those gel packs are pretty small size, like 12x12 i think. Best bet, in my opinion, is to buy a gelly roll, cinegear makes a cheap one for like 25 bucks, then go to a local grip house and buy a few singles (usually around $8 each) of each of your standards, like spun, cto, ctb, cts, opal, & light diffusion. the advantage of that is that the singles are more than double the size of the gels that come in the packs, so you can use them on chimeras, or cut small slices off for smaller lights like 150s. Then, buy one of those gel packs of all the fancy party colors like purple, green and whatnot and get a roll of blackwrap and your set.
