The Camera Division




The Camera Division is wrapping up its first year since the merger of Division Camera and The Camera House on May 1st, 2017. In that time, we have made major strides into the world of television, working with more than a dozen major productions last season. We continue to expand our technical capabilities and inventory to enable us to better serve any type or size of production. In fact, we are about to become the first camera rental facility in Los Angeles to carry the Hudson Spider light. TCD takes very seriously the responsibility of helping our cinematographers realize their vision. Providing DPs with the latest in lightweight, versatile lighting technology - which includes the recent acquisition of the Litemat Plus 4 - is the logical progression of this ethos.



One of our exciting new home-grown improvements is the ability to create custom-machined parts and accessories. We now employ 3D printing to create prototypes and CNC Manufacturing to produce TCD-designed camera and cage plates, director’s monitor handheld rigs, power system improvements and more to come.



TCD also continues its mission to promote diversity within the industry we love. The EMERGENCE program, spearheaded by TCD, has brought 12 partners together to provide services and equipment from pre-production through post, free-of-charge, in order to help encourage a more diverse group of working filmmakers in Los Angeles and beyond.
