The Pepper Van set up on location

Sunshine Coast's toughest video production vans.

Two of them. A 4X4 adventure van built to run a full shoot anywhere off-grid, and a 2026 Transit Custom Trail that does the day-to-day production and grip work — still tough enough for a work site.

Why it matters

Not a nice touch. A different shoot day.

You will love having a Pepper van on your next video shoot. Giving our clients an unforgettable shoot day is what we love most — so we built production vans that keep our kit in prime condition while providing coffee, cold drinks and shade wherever the job takes us.

They’re the perfect environment for reviewing footage and imagery on the spot, and they double as a change room or a makeup area when a shoot needs one.

Between the two, there is a right vehicle for the job: one that can disappear up a forestry track for two days, and one that can be parked outside a city office at 7am without a second thought.

The fleet

Two vans, two jobs.

Most production companies have a car. We have two vans, and they do genuinely different work — which means the vehicle that turns up suits the shoot rather than the other way around.

The 4X4 — off-grid and overnight

Solar panels, lithium batteries, shore power and a 3000W inverter, in a genuine 4X4 adventure van. Remote locations and overnight stays on bigger productions are a normal shoot day rather than a logistics problem.

The Transit Custom Trail — the daily driver

A 2026 Ford Transit Custom Trail, and the van that does most of the work: our dedicated day-to-day production and grip vehicle. Smaller and easier to place on a tight city job, still tough enough for a work site.

What's in them

Built to work anywhere.

Off-grid power

Solar panels, lithium batteries, shore power and a 3000W inverter in the 4X4. No waiting on a charge halfway through a long shoot.

4X4 capable

A genuine adventure van, so remote locations are a normal shoot day rather than a logistics problem.

Overnight ready

Set up for overnight stays on bigger productions — we start at first light instead of driving to it.

Grip and gear

The Transit runs as a dedicated production and grip van, so the kit for a normal shoot day is loaded and ready rather than packed the night before.

Kit protection

Cameras, lenses and lighting stay in condition, out of heat, dust and rain between setups.

A review station

Footage and stills checked on the spot, in shade, so nothing is discovered back at the office a week later.

The difference

In-house crew. Agency brain.

Most production gets booked one person at a time — a shooter here, an editor somewhere else, and a client left holding it together.

We run the whole thing in-house, from the first planning conversation to the final delivered file. There is no handover between a freelancer and a stranger, because there is no handover — the people who plan your shoot are the people who turn up to it and the people who cut it.

Behind that crew is Chilli, the Sunshine Coast marketing agency that has been growing local businesses since 1993. It changes the first question we ask: not what you want the work to look like, but what it has to achieve.

And the vans are the part you can actually see. A factory floor, a plantation access track or a construction site works as easily as a boardroom — no scrambling for power, no half-day lost to logistics.
