Crew you can put in front of a client

Booking crew is a risk. You're vouching for someone you might not have met, on a day you can't do twice. So we make it a small decision. Our crew came up through live broadcast news at Network Ten, where there's no second take and no one to call.

That's the standard we bring to your shoot. On time, kitted, briefed, and calm when the schedule slips. You brief us once and get on with running the day.

What you can book

Book one person or a full unit. Half day, full day or a run of days across a multi-site job.

Director of Photography

Lead camera with the eye and the kit. The person who makes the footage look like the reference you were sent.

See camera operator hire →

Second and third camera

Extra angles for interviews, panels and stage. Matched cameras so it cuts together in the edit.

See multi-camera filming →

Sound recordist

Radio mics, boom and a clean mix. The part of a shoot people notice only when it's wrong.

Lighting and gaffer

Interview lighting that flatters real people in real offices, not a studio look pasted onto a boardroom.

Producer on the day

Someone running the floor so talent is where they need to be and the schedule holds.

Livestream technician

Vision switching, encoding and the stream itself for a hybrid room.

How we work

How a job runs, step by step.

Five stages, all handled. You brief us once and give your feedback. We run the rest.

01 Your part

Brief

Tell us the goal, the audience and the deadline once. Jess turns it into a scope, a plan and a fixed quote, so you know what you are getting before anything is locked in.

  • One clear brief, no back and forth
  • A fixed quote up front, itemised
  • One point of contact, start to finish

White label crewing for agencies

A big share of our work is crewing for other production companies, event agencies and comms teams. Your client, your brief, your name on the job. We turn up as your crew and we stay in our lane.

That means no pitching your client, no logos on our shirts, and no going around you afterwards. Repeat agency work only happens if we're easy to work with, so that's the whole strategy.

What we bring

Broadcast grade kit

Sony FX6 bodies, prime and zoom glass, radio mics and lighting. Shot to match if you're mixing crews.

Insurance and compliance

Public liability in place, and we'll fill in whatever the venue or site needs before the day.

Vehicles and access

Our regos are on file, so loading dock and venue access forms get done ahead of time.

Media handling

Cards backed up on site to two drives before anyone leaves. Footage handed over how you want it.

Edit if you want it

Take the rushes and cut them yourself, or leave it with us.

One contact

Jess books it, confirms it and answers the phone on the day.

How a crew booking runs

    Date, location, hours and what you're shooting. We come back on availability the same day where we can.

    Fixed quote

    Crew, kit and any travel, priced up front. You know the number before you commit it to your client.

  3. 03

    Call sheet

    We send or receive one. Either way everyone knows the call time, the contact and the parking.

  4. 04

    Shoot day

    We're set up before your client arrives. You run your day, we run the camera.

  5. 05

    Handover

    Backed-up footage delivered the way you asked, with a shot log if you want one.

What clients say.

I’m really relaxed. Even at events I’m not at, I’m not worried at all. It’s set and forget.

They make our attendees feel comfortable on camera, and find ways to maximise the content on the day.

I had a partner, not a supplier. They were truly part of the team, across a four day, five week event.

Good to know

Questions, answered.

Can I book just one camera operator?

Yes. One operator for a half day is a normal booking for us, right through to a full unit across several days. Tell us what the day looks like and we'll tell you what it actually needs.

Do you work white label under our brand?

Yes, and a lot of our work is exactly that. Your client, your brief, your name. We don't pitch your client and we don't approach them afterwards.

Is kit included in the crew rate?

Camera, glass, radio mics and standard lighting come with the operator. Anything specialist gets quoted as its own line so you can see what you're paying for.

How far will you travel?

Across Sydney and greater NSW as standard. Further afield is fine too, we just add travel and mileage to the quote so there are no surprises.

How much notice do you need?

A week or two is comfortable. We've turned crew around in 24 hours plenty of times, so ask anyway if it's short notice.

Who owns the footage?

You do. On a crewing job the rushes are yours the moment they're handed over.

Where we film

Across Sydney and greater NSW.

Based in Sydney, filming across the CBD, North Sydney, Macquarie Park, Parramatta, the Inner West and beyond. We travel across NSW and interstate for the right job.
