How does Filmstaff.com attract the top producers in the entertainment industry?
Filmstaff began in 1986 to inform production and post production freelancers of valid job opportunities. Since that time we have established an excellent reputation with major studios and independent producers and other companies looking for quality crew members for their productions. We've also been fortunate to attract a very talented team of people who work 7 days every week to find the best jobs for you. Our own team has a vast amount of experience in the music, film, and television industries, with over 300 feature film and TV credits. We have been crew keys on some of the most successful film projects in history, and we know how Hollywood works. We now put that talent and dedication towards making Hollywood work with you.

How long should I be a member?
This is completely up to you. If you want to take advantage of Filmstaff.com's greatest resource, the Searchable Database, I recommend being a member for at least three months. Remember, the goal of every Filmstaff.com member is to grow their entertainment industry network, not just to get one job. For example, If you get searched by one television production every month for three months, that could turn into more than 30 television jobs over a career. I know, it has happened to me! It goes without saying that the Crew Members that have been with Filmstaff.com the longest have the highest likelyhood of getting a Hollywood job! Many members have been with us for years and continue to find work through Filmstaff.com. Also, when Producers use the Searchable Database, members who have been with us the longest show up first.
