In 2007 Ethan started A-Frame Productions as a working DP who needed a diverse “tool box” to create images. Over the next 18 years, A-FRAME evolved: moving from a 2BR in Prospect Heights to a loft share in Dumbo, to a corporate office in the FiDi and finally, into a ground floor warehouse in the best hood in NYC- Prospect Heights, Brooklyn. All the while, A-FRAME continued building inventory and bringing in badass film professionals to support the mission: to provide an alternative to the corporate rental houses and offer competitive pricing with “Mom and Pop” service. A local shop run by local pros.

Alas, in 2025, A-FRAME still stands as a boutique camera, lighting, and grip rental company in Prospect Heights, Brooklyn, servicing the NYC film and television industry with a smile and offering a diverse inventory of the leading brands.

Still an active DP in the industry and owner/operator of A-FRAME, Ethan is integral in bringing R&D from the field back into the decisions made @ the shop so that A-FRAME can continue to carry top of the line instruments that are proven on set and well maintained in the shop.
