Scenery Rentals 101: Everything You Need to Know (Without Sounding Like a Brochure)
So, you’re trying to create a killer set. Maybe it’s for a commercial. Maybe it’s for a music video. Maybe you’re just trying to impress your ex with a life-size replica of the spaceship from Interstellar. We don’t judge.
Enter: Chris G TV Inc.
They’re the behind-the-scenes legends you didn’t know you needed — until your producer asked, “Where are we getting a medieval castle door by Tuesday?”
Who Is This Chris G Guy?
Chris G TV Inc. is like the Swiss Army knife of Hollywood’s art department scene. Based in sunny Los Angeles (where else?), they’ve been building, designing, and renting out scenery longer than most of us have been able to legally rent a car.
TV? ✔
Commercials? ✔
Music videos? ✔
Once-in-a-lifetime proposals involving fake brick walls and fog machines? Probably.
And yes — they rent scenery. Like, a lot of it.
What Kind of Stuff Can You Rent?
Glad you asked, imaginary friend.
Chris G’s warehouse is like the Costco of set pieces — except cooler and without the free samples (sadly).
You’ll find:
Flats in every size (1’×8’ up to 10’×12’) — flats = fake walls, not shoes.
Windows, doors, arches, platforms, stair units, rocks (fake ones, not the emotionally heavy ones).
Trees! Not the kind that drop leaves on your car, the kind you film under.
Flooring, curtains, plexiglass, and bubble machines. Yes. BUBBLE. MACHINES.
Also: foggers, turntables, dollies, sandbags, and other mysterious film-world gadgets you pretend to know the names of at parties.
Why Renting is Smart (Besides the Obvious “Saving Money” Part)
Here’s the thing: building stuff from scratch is cool. But you know what’s cooler? Not spending $5K on a custom wall only to toss it out after three hours of shooting.
Chris G lets you reuse scenic pieces — saving your budget, your timeline, and maybe even your sanity.
Plus, reusing = saving the planet. 🌎
You’re not just a filmmaker now — you’re an eco-warrior with a clipboard.
Delivery? Paint? Can They Make It Pink?
Yes, yes, and heck yes.
Need your backdrop delivered? They’ve got trucks — multiple sizes, like a pizza place but with stake beds and a 5-ton.
Want it painted, finished, distressed, or covered in glitter? They do that too. Probably not the glitter. Actually… maybe? You should ask.
You can rent stuff as-is, or let their team zhuzh it up with pro paint jobs and finishing work that’ll make your art director cry happy tears.
Bonus Round: Full Art Department + Fabrication
Chris G doesn’t just rent things. Oh no.
They’ve got an 18,000 square foot fabrication workshop with CNC, laser, plasma — basically, a sci-fi movie worth of tools.
They also have:
A private office and bathroom (for when you're hiding from producers).
A mini shooting space with 22’ ceilings (in case your scene involves flying humans or… Shaq).
How to Actually Rent Stuff
Look through the inventory. It’s deep. Like, deeper-than-your-college-poetry deep.
Call them or email them. They’re real humans and surprisingly helpful.
Get a quote. They work with your budget. Even if your budget is “some expired granola bars and good vibes.” Clearly, that is a joke, but we try to be flexible and helpful. Working for granola bars is not something we do.
Real-Life Example
Chris G once built an entire retro game show set for the Black Eyed Peas, using 90% rented materials.
That’s not just recycling — that’s Hollywood alchemy.
🧾 Final Thoughts (Before You Go Rent That Fake Tree)
Chris G TV Inc. is where chaotic production dreams meet organized, rentable reality.
You bring the wild ideas.
They bring the scenery, the tools, the trucks, and the occasional disco floor.
