FAQs

Production FAQs

Common questions about our production services, crew availability, and equipment support.

How big of a crew can you put together for a shoot in NYC?

The production team handles projects which range from two-person documentary production to 150-person feature unit operations. The typical range for commercial production shoots includes 15 to 30 personnel who consist of a DP and camera team and gaffer with two electrics and key grip with a swing and sound mixer and boom op and additional staff from art department and HMU. We've crewed up Netflix series with full New York units and handled single-day corporate interviews with just a shooter and audio. The network scales to fit.

We need crew fast—what's your turnaround in New York?

NYC-based crew can often mobilize within 24–48 hours for urgent jobs—we've pulled together same-day news crews when stories break. Regional shoots need more runway; figure 5–7 days minimum for locations outside major cities. The real constraint is usually equipment availability from rental houses, not crew. If you're planning ahead, 2–3 weeks gives us time to assemble the right team rather than just the available one.

Will language be an issue with local crew?

The department heads who include DPs and gaffers and sound mixers and 1st ADs possess English fluency and have worked on productions outside their home country. That's a baseline requirement for our network. Grips, electrics, and PAs vary, but we always ensure someone on each team can translate. For fully English-language shoots, we have native crews across every department.

Do you handle gear rental or just crew?

We work with rental houses, Panavision NYC, RVZ, and other New York rental houses daily. The majority of equipment packages include crew members who stay with their assigned positions because the gaffer operates from their preferred lighting location and the DP selects the camera equipment. Our company takes care of customs procedures and carnet documentation for international productions which choose to bring their own equipment. The delivery of equipment brings tested and prepared equipment to the site; we begin our work.'t send gear to set without a checkout.

Is shooting in New York expensive compared to other markets?

Honestly, it depends on what you're comparing to. LA rates are similar, Atlanta's cheaper, London's about the same after exchange. Union minimums and NYC permits add costs you won't see in Georgia or New Mexico. But you're getting crews who've done this a thousand times and gear that's five blocks away. We quote everything upfront—no hidden fees. And that 30% NY tax credit? It makes a real difference on longer shoots. Most productions find the value matches the spend.
