The exclusive 3-person camera crew Berlin
Our Berlin based camera crews can be booked as a three-person team, consisting of a camera operator, a sound recordist and a director. The crew organises the shooting dates, keeps a close eye on the schedule of the shooting day, conducts the interviews if needed and feels responsible for the well-being of the protagonists to help your shoot run smoothly.
The classic 2-person camera team Berlin
The classic camera crew is a two-person team. It consists of a camera operator and a sound recordist and we also cater to clients who need a professional 2-person camera crew for their project. The organisation and editorial work in this case lies in the hand of the client. So if you are a director / journalist yourself and you are looking for a professional camera crew based in Berlin, you can of course book our service. We’re looking forward to hearing from you to help you realise your next film project!
The special 2-person camera crew Berlin
The special 2-person camera crew consists of a cameraperson, who also takes over the tasks of the sound recordist and a director.
In recent years we have had a wealth of experience in this field and have realised many film productions in this constellation. The advantage lies not only in the clear cost savings, but our protagonists also appreciate this “private” option very much. We experience time and again that the people in front of the camera find a smaller team less disturbing. The people open up much more quickly and we get better access.
The VJ or shoot edit, i.e. only one person for all aspects of filming?
The smallest team is the VJ or shoot edit, the video journalist. One man or woman for everything: camera, sound and directing. There may be people who are good at this kind of video journalism, we are not convinced. Anyone who has ever stood behind a camera knows how many different factors and technical settings you have to pay attention to during a shoot. Add to that the supervision of the sound recording and the editorial work, and it's easy to lose sight of the big picture or the important detail. We prefer to focus on quality and actually always recommend a two-person team.
Nevertheless, there are always situations in which only one cameraperson is needed. We don't say no to that either.
Whether you’re planning a documentary, event or corporate film we have the creative talent at our finger tips. Don’t hesitate to get in touch!
