Lighting Equipment Rental

Here is how this works in practice. We help lighting kit rentals across Morocco, drawing on the inventory built up around Ouarzazate — nicknamed 'Ouallywood' — and Casablanca over decades of servicing global shoots including Gladiator, Kingdom of Heaven and Spectre. Atlas Studios and CLA Studios hold standing lighting stock alongside their sets. Our team supplements with pro fixtures flown in from Europe — a short hop. With Casablanca roughly three hours from major hubs.

Here is what that looks like on the ground. On the ground, we work with the gaffer to assemble complete packages: HMI, LED and tungsten fixtures, dimming and control, grip for shaping the light, and the power distribution to run it all, prepped and tested before it reaches set whether the unit is in Marrakech or out on the Merzouga dunes.

Here is the short of it. Lighting design in Morocco is dominated by the sun. With more than 300 sunny days a year and famously hard, trusted light, much of the lighting department's work outdoors is cutting, bouncing and balancing daylight rather than adding raw output, while big HMIs handle fill against deep desert contrast. Power is the other constant: mains is 220V/50Hz. But remote exteriors across the Sahara. The Atlas Mountains run on power packs, so we set up generation, distribution and load calculations for each location.

Here is how the picture comes together. On the ground, Desert dust needs fixtures, cabling and distro to be sealed and cleaned frequently, summer heat above 40°C demands careful handling and shaded staging, and cool desert nights bring condensation. Lighting hire from Moroccan vendors is billed in dirham (MAD) and counts as qualifying spend toward the CCM 30% cash rebates.
