A film and television project where authenticity, detail and atmosphere all mattered.

Project Overview

John Moncrieff supplied custom glass shades and lighting components for the Outlander series, supporting the creation of period-accurate interiors across multiple set environments.

This was not a standard lighting supply job. The production required fittings that aligned with historical references while working effectively on camera, helping to build atmosphere and visual depth within each scene.

This project demonstrates where specialist supply creates real value: bespoke glass lighting components that support authentic storytelling while meeting the practical demands of TV and film production.

Scope of Supply

• Custom glass shades for period lighting
• Specialist components for oil lamps and heritage fittings
• Glass elements selected for on-screen authenticity
• Support for set design and prop teams

Why This Project Matters

In period television, lighting is a key part of the visual narrative. Every fitting contributes to the authenticity of the scene, and small details can have a significant impact on how the final result appears on screen.

Productions like Outlander require suppliers who understand both historical accuracy and the practical needs of filming, including consistency, reliability and visual performance under lighting conditions.

The right lighting solution supports both — delivering authentic period detail while functioning effectively within a live production environment.

What Clients Take From This

• We support high-profile TV and film productions with specialist glass lighting
• We supply period-accurate components for authentic set design
• We understand the importance of visual detail on camera
• We add value where authenticity, craftsmanship and reliability all matter

Quote from the Project
