** PLEASE NOTE ** My only real rule is that you MESSAGE ME before booking anything. Even if we have worked together before, MESSAGE ME FIRST. If you book first and then message me, I will decline you and possibly not rent to you again.

My goal is to make sure you can create your film (or capture a wedding or interview or documentary).
If I don’t have the equipment you need at the price you can afford, message me and I’ll see what I can do. 100% of the equipment I own was bought because a creative artists asked for it. I have over $100,000 more in equipment that is not listed here, but just message me about what you need and I will be happy to add it if I have it. I sometimes buy as much as $2000-$3000 a week in near gear because local artists, filmmakers and groups need it and can’t get it at the price they can afford.
I am sometimes able to (and happy to) deliver equipment to your location (and pick it up) for a very reasonable price — even free if you’re renting enough! Not always the case, but I will always try.
Unlike the big rental houses, I keep extended hours from very early mornings to very late nights, including weekends and holidays. I have been known to even handle gear last minute at 2am, but that’s not always possible.
Please note that I am located in Rosemont near O'hare airport. If you take public transportation, I will always be happy to meet you at the Rosemont Blue Line free of charge for pick-ups or drop-offs! You can also come directly to me if you have a vehicle or take an Uber.
If you need to rent equipment that will cost you over $500, PM me for how you MIGHT be able to get a 50% discount by getting it all from me through ShareGrid, assuming I own it.
I am also the Executive Producer and founder of iNDiDB Studios — if you need a soundstage or studio space for very little, inquire.
