Specializing in film industry equipment rentals for art departments and production
Blu Tape Rentals is not just another equipment and expendable rental company serving the film industry in Los Angeles – It’s BETTER! Why, you might ask? The easy answer would be that it is the collaborative result of two seasoned film industry forces: Matthew Murphy, a powerhouse Lead-man (a.k.a ‘The Bear’) and Jesse Wight, a sought-after Set Decorator (a.k.a ‘Jack of all Trades – Master of Most’).
Knowing firsthand how busy pickup, shoot and wrap days can be, these two colleagues, friends and business partners got together in early 2012, with only a few hundred sq. feet of a dusty lockup bay within the infamous ‘Western Studio Services’ building in Burbank, CA, and a grand vision to create an easy one-stop production facility, that would not only cater to the needs of art departments and productions alike, but to the hard working crew as well.
The more we observed our daily working patterns, the more we realized the need for a company like this. We wanted to create a unique space where crew members from Lead-men to Prop Masters and Art Directors could conveniently store their bulky onset kits (because, let’s face it, nobody wants it consuming half of their garage) rent equipment for the job, shop for expendables, and/or just simply drop by to have a coffee and shoot a round of pool with some familiar faces in our production work area. As we like to say, “the day just got a little easier!”
We may not be the biggest name on the block (yet), but with our extensive knowledge and experience, we feel confident that we have what you need, regardless of the size, type or budget of your production. Our goal is to have the highest quality, customized equipment at competitive rates, to offer more services under one roof and to employ great staff that will assure you have the right tools and equipment for every job. If you don’t see something in our inventory that you’re in desperate need of, just let us know ahead of time and we’ll make every effort to get it for you before your pickup date – just like that!
From all of us at Blu Tape Rentals, we’d like to say thank you for considering us, and we sincerely hope that we get the opportunity to earn your business. We are 100% dedicated to you!
