Get Set Hire

The 33rd @raindancefilmfestival has wrapped – and what a festival it was! Get Set Hire was proud to sponsor this legendary celebration of independent film for the very first time. From water coolers and makeup mirrors to sofas, lights, and more, our kit was everywhere across the West End, even featured in our 60-second ad shown before every screening. We’ve put together a full Raindance Festival Rundown on the blog, including our Top 5 unmissable film picks: From the tense UK thriller @rowthefilm to the raw, American horror @deformelody_movie , the powerful powerful and shocking queer documentary @flamingocampfilm , the opening premiere sucker-punch of @heavyweightthefilm and the subtle connections of #grandmanaiwhoplayedfavorites, the lineup blew us away. We also got a front-row seat at @netflixuk Day, and the closing gala. Plus, we hosted our very own reception at the @Canon Lounge, a great chance to connect with filmmakers, old and new. Raindance reminded us that creativity, bold stories, and community matter most. We’re excited to support more shoots powered by indie passion. 👉 Read the full blog and discover our highlights /blog/raindance-film-festival-sponsorship 🎥 Use code Raindance25 for an exclusive discount on your next shoot equipment hire! #GetSetHire #Raindance2025 #FilmFestival #BehindTheScenes #SetHire

Get Set Hire is now an official BAFTA albert supporter, joining the collective mission to make the screen industries more sustainable. Having featured in the albert Suppliers Directory and participated in initiatives over the years, this new status formalises a relationship built on shared values and collaboration. Get Set Hire supplies a wide range of location and production equipment across the UK, while actively helping productions reduce their environmental impact. From adopting a fully electric and HVO-fuelled fleet that has cut emissions by over 80%, to offering battery power, refillable water coolers, and recyclable materials, sustainability is central to everything they do. Managing Director James Bridgford said: “Sustainability is part of our DNA. It’s not a bolt-on or an afterthought.” Head of Sustainability Bryony Harrison-Miller added: “Partnering with BAFTA albert goes hand in hand with our commitment to help make a decarbonised film industry a reality.” #GetSetHire #BAFTA #BAFTAAlbert #ESG #ProductionEquipment
