The concept is approved. The deadline is set. You know the story you want to tell.
Now you just need a producer, director, camera operator, sound engineer, editor—and maybe some lighting, set building, and makeup—to bring it to life.
Cue the scramble.
Hiring a video production crew for a single project can become a project of its own. You have to find people with the right experience, review portfolios, confirm availability, compare rates, negotiate contracts, and make sure everyone can be onsite when and where you need them. And if someone drops out or the date changes? You may be back where you started.

There’s an easier way.
A staffing partner with deep creative production experience, like 2A Works, can assemble the right crew without adding a second job to your already-full plate.
Here’s what we bring to the table:
A network that’s already vetted
We’re constantly finding and vetting freelance video talent—and know who has the technical skills, reliability, and collaborative style your production requires—so you don’t have to.
Knowledge of the current market
Video rates and expectations vary by role, location, equipment, and project scope. They also change with market demand. We staff video shoots regularly and can help you establish a realistic budget, negotiate fair rates, and avoid expensive surprises.
Logistics you don’t have to manage
Availability, contracts, scheduling, travel, onsite requirements, and last-minute replacements can consume valuable time. We’ll handle the moving pieces and get your crew where they need to be, ready to work.
Teams across the country
Maybe you have a few favorite video folks in your hometown, but your next shoot is happening hundreds of miles away. Don’t worry, our network spans the nation, with talent in parts of Europe too! We’ll tap the right people wherever your production takes you.
We find and vet exceptional creative talent, stay current on rates and expectations, negotiate on your behalf, and assemble a crew tailored to your production.
You handle the story. We’ll handle the staffing—no scramble required.
