Video equipment rental site KitSplit has bought a similar site, CameraLends, to become the largest video equipment rental site.

KitSplit is a great site that can offer easy equipment rentals from people and rental houses in your area. It is basically the AirBnB for camera equipment. If you have equipment you can list it on the site and set your price, and when you are not using it you can rent it out to fellow video producers. If you are looking for equipment, just search what you are looking for and see results from around your area. It really is that simple. 

“There are more content creators today than ever before and they all need access to top quality, affordable gear. The CameraLends acquisition will further our goals of democratizing access to great gear and empowering creators.” – Lisbeth Kaufman, KitSplit Co-Founder and CEO, Press Release via Forbes

When we run our video storytelling bootcamps for TV news organizations, our primary focus is on what we call ‘the viewer experience’. It is a given that the journalism is well researched and accurate, but if no one is watching; if there is no ‘audience engagement’ with the story, then you are in fact showing it to no one, which is tragic, and avoidable.
