Monitor & Video Village

Video village builds in Peru run out of Audiovisual Project Perú, El Niño Rentals, Filmtek Perú, and Audiovisual Mendoza in Lima. Cinesphere Rentals, Tondero Rentals, and Stock Rental Peru stage the multi-monitor packages, weather tents, and seating that shoots need. A Sacred Valley feature, a Madre de Dios Amazon block, or a Paracas coastal exterior often runs an agency client viewing right beside the director's chair.

We stage 24-inch and 32-inch TVLogic LUM-241G and LUM-310X reference monitors for the director. The SmallHD 1703 P3 and the Sony BVM-HX310 OLED handle HDR-critical calls, while Boland MON-24 panels cover the client run. For bright exteriors, the SmallHD Cine 13 high-bright path takes the sun-loading on the Andean and coastal blocks.

Multi-feed setups route through Teradek Bolt 4K LT, Bolt 6 XT, and Bolt 1500 receivers, with up to 6 receivers off one transmitter. Decimator and AJA Mini-Converters bridge the legacy HDMI feeds. Pomfort Live Grade and SilverStack stations handle the on-set look running and dailies offload. The Peruvian Cinematographers community runs the live grade consult against the Cine Lab Lima or La Mecha colour pipeline.

Each village leaves the warehouse pre-built and labelled. Monitors ship calibrated against Rec. 709 or P3-D65 with the show LUT loaded. Fibre and SMPTE-rated cable runs come coiled for the long throws across the Lima sound stages or the Sacred Valley lodge sets. V-mount and Gold-mount battery banks arrive staged with the on-set charging rack. The communications tie-in to the Lectrosonics or Riedel intercom chain is pre-wired for director-to-set talkback.

Weather-covered tents with climate control handle the Madre de Dios Amazon humidity runs, the Sechura desert heat blocks, and the Sacred Valley altitude exteriors. On those blocks, Cusco mornings start at 5°C and Manú lodge afternoons push 95% humidity. Silica gel trays ride in each monitor case, and condensation-resistant covers come out for the rainy season, Nov-Apr. Silent Pramac power packs, imported under SUNAT ATA carnet, feed the village where the mains can't reach.

SERNANP heritage permits cover the Manú, Tambopata, and Paracas reserve days. INC and Ministerio de Cultura permits cover Machu Picchu and Ollantaytambo, and DAFO sign-off covers the Lima and Sacred Valley filming windows. The capital duty office runs a 24-hour swap cycle for failed panels, so a Cine 13 dying on a Cusco rooftop is back online by the next call sheet.
