Contact: Virginia Ginsburg Angstrom Lighting Celebrates 30 YearsHollywood, CA – February 6, 2007 – Angstrom Lighting, one of the most respected full-service lighting suppliers serving the entertainment industry, is announcing expanded services, additional staff and a new branch office to commemorate its 30th year in business. Serving a wide range of clients in television, film, theatre and corporate markets, the company provides exemplary experience, knowledge and reliability worldwide. Angstrom Lighting started in 1977 by providing the Hollywood theatre community with high-quality lighting and excellent service. To mark their 30th year, Angstrom Lighting is moving forward with the following plans:
In addition, Angstrom Lighting has designed a special 30th anniversary logo to be displayed on limited edition T-shirts and jackets. Customers can win merchandise on the company website. “We’re very excited about the plans for our 30th year. By taking the business to the next level with increased services and expanded facilities, we’ll be able to serve a wider audience,” said Frans Klinkenberg, president and a founder of Angstrom Lighting. “What started out in an apartment on Fareholm Avenue 30 years ago with just a few lights and cable has grown into a business that has touched almost every aspect of Hollywood. It has been an honor to work with some of the best lighting designers in the world and to manage some of the best employees in the business.” In an industry that has low employee retention, Angstrom Lighting has an excellent longevity record; most of its employees have been with the company for at least five years, and many have celebrated more than fifteen years of service. These employees are the backbone of Angstrom Lighting’s ability to provide exceptional customer service that is personable, knowledgeable and reliable. Over the past three decades, Angstrom Lighting has illuminated the streets of Hollywood’s Walk of Fame as well as those of Universal Studios-Hollywood’s back lot; they have added flair to the stages of countless productions from Dance Kaleidoscope to Jesus Christ Superstar, and provided drama to the Governor’s Ball and the Hollywood Bowl. A broad spectrum of businesses and individuals depend on Angstrom Lighting for their lighting and special effects needs. “I first worked with Frans back in 1980,” said Jon Sipos, Technical Manager for Thinkwell Design & Production. “He and his team have always been an excellent resource for me whether I was designing lights for L.A. Ballet back in the 80s or solving problems in Atlantic City for Thinkwell. I have always been able to rely on Angstrom to be there for me, regardless of the size or location of the production I’m working on.” Angstrom Lighting serves many types of clients around the world, including film companies, theatrical producers and individual production designers who rely on its extensive rental inventory to meet their creative needs. Businesses of all types, from theatres and churches to schools and nightclubs, count on Angstrom’s sales department to help them plan and purchase the right lighting for their spaces. The wide-range of service and repair offerings enable customers to keep their lighting fixtures and systems in good working order, and the company’s educational workshops through Angstrom University offer amateurs and experts alike the opportunity to study with industry professionals in areas such as lighting and projection design, rigging, console programming and business development.
