Crew & availability
Every Podcast Pros LA booking comes with an operating crew. This page is where you see who is free on your date, request them by name, and — if you work in production in Los Angeles — put yourself on the list.
The roster
Day rates are for a ten-hour day in Greater Los Angeles and include the operator only — gear, stage and travel are quoted separately. Filter by role, then check the date.
Availability
Availability is updated by the crew themselves and is indicative, not a confirmed hold. Requesting a date starts the hold — we confirm by email the same day.
Tap a day on the calendar to see who is open and at what rate.
Book
For clients and producers. Tell us the date and what the day needs — we come back the same day with names, rates and a hold.
For freelancers in Los Angeles. Build your profile once and we call you when a date matches. No exclusivity, no fee, and we pay on delivery of the invoice — not net 60.
Yes. Podcast Pros LA books crew on their own — camera operators, technical directors, audio engineers, gaffers, editors, stills photographers and hair and makeup — for your location or your own studio. Day rates start at $550 for a camera operator and are for a ten-hour day in Greater Los Angeles, operator only, with gear and travel quoted separately.
Camera operator from $550 a day, editor from $650, audio engineer (A1) from $700, gaffer from $700, technical director from $750, stills photographer from $850, and hair and makeup at $700. All rates are for a ten-hour day in Greater Los Angeles and cover the operator only.
Use the availability calendar at podcastprosla.com/crew. Pick a date and the page shows who is open and at what rate, then adds them to a booking request. Availability shown is indicative; a request starts the hold and we confirm by email the same day.
Freelancers in Los Angeles can submit a profile at podcastprosla.com/crew with their role, day rate, second role, gear, reel and credits. There is no fee and no exclusivity, and invoices are paid on delivery rather than net 60.
Yes. Every stage and on-location booking includes an operating crew in the hourly rate, along with the room, the gear, set-up, strike and same-day media handoff. Additional crew beyond the standard operating team is booked from this roster.
