Welcome to BOLD Cine

A new site, the same hand-picked brands, and an AI advisor that'll spec your next kit. Welcome in.

Welcome to BOLD Cine

Welcome in. If you've found your way here, you've landed on the new BOLD Cine — a refreshed look, a sharper voice, and a site we built around how filmmakers actually shop for gear. Take a few minutes; we'll show you around.

Who we are

BOLD Cine is the U.S. distribution partner for a small, carefully chosen group of cinema brands. We're not a catalog house, and we don't sell anything we wouldn't put on a set ourselves. Our job is to bring great gear from specialist manufacturers — many of them family-owned, several of them with decades of pedigree — into the hands of the working filmmakers, students, and emerging DPs who use it.

If a brand is on this site, it earned its spot.

The brands we represent

Five names, all hand-picked, all backed by real warranties and an authorized U.S. dealer network.

  • LUPO — Italian-engineered LED cinema lighting. HyperpanelPRO, DayledPRO, and a deep family of fixtures built for color-critical work.
  • VOCAS — Dutch precision camera support. Matte boxes, baseplates, follow focus, and shoulder rigs that hold up to working sets.
  • FILMSTICKS — The resin clapperboards trusted on professional productions worldwide. The standard for a reason.
  • HEDÉN — Swedish-engineered lens control since 1964. The motor of choice when the focus pull has to be perfect.
  • ROADDOG — Cases, carts, and the now-iconic CaseCarts built for the road. Ready in five.

Head over to the Brands page to dig into each one — full product lines, technical specs, and where they fit in your workflow.

Tell us about your shoot. We'll spec the gear.

The headline addition to the new site is the BOLD Cine Advisor — an AI built on our full catalog. Describe the shoot in plain language ("14×16 interview studio, two subjects, daylight balance" or "run-and-gun doc kit with a shoulder rig"), and the Advisor returns specific gear recommendations across lighting, support, and accessories. It's trained on real specs, not marketing copy.

Want to drill deeper into one brand? Brand-specific Advisors live on each brand page — the LUPO Lighting Advisor goes deep on output, color, and fixture pairing, and we're rolling out the same treatment for the rest of the catalog.

It's the fastest way to go from "I think I need a key light" to "here are the three fixtures that fit your room, in stock at this dealer."

More than a store

A couple other corners of the new site worth knowing about:

The Journal is where we share industry news, gear launches, and the occasional behind-the-scenes piece — with our take. Less press-release reposting, more honest read.

BOLD University is for the people earlier in their journey — students, hobbyists, working DPs leveling up. Plain-language explainers, gear-buying guides, and the technical fundamentals worth knowing before you spec your next kit.

How to buy

We don't sell direct — we distribute. Every product on the site ships through an authorized U.S. dealer in our network, which means real warranties, real local support, and real people you can call. Use the Where to Buy page or hit the button below to find a dealer near you.
