I am no specialist in this field, but you might be able to use it, and I think it would be understood.

There are ceiling gantries, but a lot seem to be heavy-duty for cranes.
Come to think of it, I had a ´raft´ with lighting in an earlier job. But that was not a 'bridge' structure. It was a rectangular box-shaped structure suspended from the high ceiling to bring variable lighting (spots or diffuse strip lighting as required) closer to goods displayed in a shop.

: I think gantry works here, otherwise something with rigging perhaps

Thanks! You had better suggest rigging as a separate answer of your own, I think!
