Different productions, differing budgets, but one constant is the cost of international crews, which can quickly mount when factoring in airfares, accommodation and per diems, not to mention the salaries.

Hanuman Films can provide a range of personnel locally to assist in keeping the production within budget. There are now a surprising number of individuals with film experience in the region and with each new project they develop new skills and become savvier.

We encourage productions to use local crew where possible, as it increases their skills and experience and contributes to building up a domestic servicing industry for the future. There are many highly skilled, experienced personnel working in the large film industry in Thailand, so with a bit of homework in the Mekong region during the pre-production period, it is possible to make major savings from your budget. Not only can we recruit experienced personnel in Cambodia and the Mekong region, but we can assist in sourcing the most experienced individuals in the Thai film industry. We also now have a large raft of in country freelance western filmmakers with whom we enjoy a close working relationship.

We can provide the following crew members:
