The situation
The same information is sent to each freelancer by message, differently each time. Someone always gets the old address. After the shoot, nobody remembers which sound recordist was so good on the documentary two years ago.
What CrewDesk changes
- A limited role for people hired by the day: their productions, their tasks, the calendar entries that concern them.
- One place for the brief: date, address, contacts and documents on the production.
- A project chat that replaces the private group that dies after the shoot.
- A history: each production keeps its team, so finding a past crew takes seconds.
- No fee per seat when the company owns the app, so adding a freelancer for one day costs nothing.
Respect for people's time
A freelancer works with many companies. One clear place with the right information, on a phone, without an account to pay for, is a reason to prefer working with you.
Make it yours
Companies ask TECHMA for availability requests sent by text or email, a crew database with rates and skills, and time sheets. These build on the same base.
