The most experienced lighting and grip crew in town
Owner-operated by San Diego gaffer Nicholas Calabria, Calabria Lighting & Grip has spent more than 17 years supporting producers, DPs, agencies, and major brands on commercials, branded content, corporate video, and narrative productions across San Diego and Southern California. We offer experienced lighting and grip crews, a custom built 2-ton grip truck, and flexible equipment packages tailored to the needs of each shoot. Whether it’s a lean interview day or a larger commercial production, the focus is always the same: bring the right crew, the right gear, and experience that helps the day run smoothly.
Custom Lighting and Grip Packages
There’s a reason our 2-ton lighting and grip package has become a go-to choice for San Diego productions. It was built from the ground up for an efficient work flow, and professionally laid out by grip truck specialists in Los Angeles and outfitted with industry-grade Studio Carts for fast, organized access on location. Every piece of gear has been selected through years of hands-on experience, creating a package that’s versatile, efficient, and ready to adapt to anything from a streamlined interview to a full commercial production. Because we own, operate, and work out of the package ourselves, we know where everything is, how it performs, and what a crew actually needs to keep the day moving. For productions looking for an experienced San Diego gaffer, a thoughtfully built 2-ton grip truck, and a lighting and grip package that can be tailored to the creative and budget, this is the package we reach for first.
