A film project where period styling, finish and on-screen atmosphere all mattered.

Project Overview

John Moncrieff supplied custom glass shades and lighting components for Death on the Nile, supporting the creation of detailed period interiors across the film’s set environments.

This was not a standard lighting supply project. The production required fittings that reflected the Art Deco and luxury styling of the setting, while also working effectively under cinematic lighting conditions.

This project demonstrates where specialist supply creates real value: bespoke glass lighting components that enhance visual storytelling while meeting the demands of large-scale film production.

Scope of Supply

• Custom glass shades for period lighting
• Specialist components for decorative and heritage fittings
• Glass elements selected for cinematic presentation
• Support for set design and prop departments

Why This Project Matters

In films like Death on the Nile, lighting plays a critical role in defining atmosphere and visual tone. Each fitting contributes to how the set is perceived on screen.

Period productions demand accuracy and consistency. Every detail needs to align with the design vision while still performing within the technical requirements of filming.

The right lighting solution supports both — delivering authentic period detail while enhancing the cinematic quality of each scene.

• We supply period-accurate components for detailed set design
