As a rule, adequate power source is required for our team setup. Additionally, access to parking for unloading/loading of our equipment. Other setup requirements would be specific to the engagement–timing, location, and venue featuresand/or obstructions. For example, an engagement starting at 7am may require early access to the venue (i.e. the day before) to adequately setup for the event so that the team can be ready to shoot at 7am.
