How we plug in

Four ways to work with us.

Hand it off. Get paid on it.

You do not want to run the project at all, you just do not want to say no to your client. Introduce us, we scope and bill them directly, and you take a commission on the project. You stay the relationship, we stay in our lane.

Credit: Your call. We can credit you as the agency of record or stay quiet.

You bring
  • The introduction and the context behind it
  • Any guardrails you want on how we talk to your client
  • Nothing after that unless you want to stay in the loop
We bring
  • Discovery, scope, and a line-item bid in 24 hours
  • Production and delivery end to end
  • Commission paid out once the client pays
  • A non-solicit so the account stays yours

Coverage

Crew in 13 states.

Atlanta is the headquarters and where the three-ton truck lives. We also run crew out of New York, Los Angeles, Miami, and Chicago. The highlighted states are where our own crew and vetted partners are based, so you can book a market without flying a full unit into it.

FAQ

What producers ask us.

Will my client ever know you were involved?

Not on a white-label job. We sign an NDA and a non-solicit before pre-pro, call sheets and slates go out in your name, and every file is delivered unbranded. We do not post the work, tag the client, or put it in a case study. If you want shared credit, that is a co-production and we agree to it in the deal memo before day one.

What does the grip truck come with?

Three-ton, Atlanta based, with a full grip and electric package: stands, flags, rigging, distro, and a generator for location. Swing crew, gaffer, and key grip are booked separately or as part of the package. Tell us the scale of the setup and we will tell you whether the truck is the right call or whether you are better off with a van package.

Can you crew outside Atlanta?

Yes. Atlanta is the headquarters and where the truck lives. We have crew and trusted partners across 13 states, with teams in New York, Miami, Los Angeles, and Chicago. Out-of-market jobs get local crew plus whichever department heads you want us to travel. Travel, per diem, and freight get quoted as line items, not buried in a day rate.

How fast can you turn a bid?

24 hours on a normal scope. Same day if you send it before noon with dates and deliverables attached. You get a line-item budget, not a range, so you can drop it straight into your own estimate.

Do you carry production insurance?

Yes. We issue a certificate of insurance naming your production as additional insured before load-in, and we keep a W-9 ready the day you ask for it. Most partner jobs are papered with a deal memo, and crew are papered per job.

Do you handle casting?

Yes, end to end. We write and run the casting call, review submissions, build you a shortlist, run callbacks, and handle releases and usage terms. On the day we wrangle talent so your producer is not chasing people. On a white-label job the casting call goes out in your name, so talent never sees ours. You can also hire casting on its own without booking crew.

Can we hire just one person?

Yes. A solo operator runs $150 an hour and covers social content, B-roll runs, and quick-turn interview days. From there it scales to a 3-person, 6-person, or 12-person unit, and past that to whatever the job needs. The published tiers are the common ones, not a ceiling. You are not required to take a package you do not need.

Who owns the footage?

You do, or your client does, per whatever your agreement says. We deliver everything: RAW or house codec, camera reports, sound logs, and project files if you want to finish it yourself. We do not hold media hostage and we do not license our own work back to you.

What if we just need post?

We take handoffs. Send the media and the spec and we handle editorial, color, motion, and finishing. Post runs $650 a day, $325 for a half day, and most short-form edits land between $325 and $3,000 depending on length and effects.

Send the scope. Get a bid.

Dates, market, and deliverables is enough to start. Line-item budget back within 24 hours.
