How much does Crewrr cost to join? 

-     To list your cast or crew position, we charge a simple flat rate of $5 per month. Production companies listing services are $25 per month and producers hiring on Crewrr are $10 per month. Cancel anytime. No questions asked. We are founded by freelancers as well, so we understand how much every dollar matters. So by being hired just one time via Crewrr, it more than pays for itself! 

If I hire someone on Crewrr, when am I charged?

-      Crewrr simply connects you with the cast and crew member. We don't process payments to and from accounts. This is because many productions and unions have very specific ways that they need to pay their employees. We don't want to interfere with that process in any way. It is up to the employer to organize payments between parties. 

If I am hired on Crewrr, how am I paid? 

-      We won't process your payment via Crewrr. You would be paid as you normally would be if hired on a contract basis for any other production. You will speak directly with your booker who will define the payment terms, send any relevant tax forms, etc. 

Once I book or am booked on Crewrr, how does a contract work?

-      Crewrr does not provide contracts between the buyer and the crew member and all contracting must be handled independent of Crewrr. 

How are taxes managed via Crewrr? 

-      We simply connect the Crew member to the employer, all taxes liabilities would be handled separate from Crewrr.

Can I get hired from international clients? 

-      Yes! Crewrr is open to the world to use. If there is someone from another country who is coming to your town to film, they have full capability of using Crewrr to locate and hire you. 

Who sets my rate?

-      You set your own rate as the crew member! There is not any minimum or maximum amount you must be paid, as long as that amount meets or exceeds your local/federal minimum wage requirements. 

Can I do half day rates? 

-      This is up to you. You 100% define your rate with your booker and can work out all the details of that rate with them.  

Can I add photos and videos to my bio? 

-      Yes! Anyone can add photos or videos to their profile! Currently, YouTube videos will be linked and shown in your profile, but we are working on getting Vimeo support as well. Profiles with more photos and examples of relevant work tend to showcase better. 

Can I message clients on Crewrr?

-      Yes! Once a buyer requests to book you on Crewrr, they will have the ability to send you a message detailing their projects needs. You will be able to communicate directly via Crewrr to sort out all production details. 

If I've worked with some other crew members on the site, can I review them to let others know how good they are? 

-      Yes! We allow members to comment publicly on other users walls. This allows others to get a sense of how the crew member works. 

What if my buyer wants to hire me for additional days? 

-      No problem! You define your days, rate, overtime, rental fees, etc with the booker. Just make sure that all fees are defined well in advance of the work date. 

Can I offer more than one service on Crewrr?

-     Yes! Just create one account and then you are able to list multiple services within that profile. So, for example, under one profile you may have 1 listing for being a gaffer, 1 listing for being a grip, 1 listing for being a Cinematographer, etc. 

Can I offer comprehensive services as a production company on Crewrr?   

- You can! Simply choose the Production Company option when setting up your listing and you'll be good to go!

If I list my specific gear on my profile, will that be searchable?

Yes! If you write in your profile, for example, that you own and operate an Alexa, then each time someone searches for "Alexa" and you meet their search criteria, you will appear in their search results.
