Overview
Blockbusters Gang is a Finnish crewing service provider operating in the media industry. Rather than being a production company itself, it supports all kinds of media productions — mostly film, TV and commercials — by supplying reliable, motivated staff in what it describes as an easy and risk-free way. Its service can be customized and consists of staffing, recruiting and/or payroll services. The company maintains a permanent team of freelancers it calls its "Gang," alongside a larger database of other industry professionals, and it also offers agency services to freelance filmmakers. The most common way to work with Blockbusters Gang is to hire freelancers as temporary employees: the worker is on Blockbusters Gang's payroll while working on the client's production under the client's supervision. Blockbusters Gang takes care of all employer responsibilities, allowing producers to focus on finishing the film instead of dealing with employment procedures and tax cards. The company states that it aims to perform with top professional quality and to keep the industry growing by constantly looking for newcomer workers, educating its current gang and taking care of freelancers' well-being. Beyond crewing, the brand offers a variety of casting services through Helsinki Casting, covering cast and extras. Its service range includes staffing services, recruitment services, and casting & extras services via Helsinki Casting. All services are invoiced all at once, and the company emphasizes that its freelancers are only one call away. Recruitment services are positioned as a way to outsource the time-consuming process of finding crew, with options ranging from shortlisted candidates to a wider selection of available employees for all open positions in one comprehensive file. Blockbusters Gang is based in Finland and operates primarily in the Finnish market. It is a private company. Public evidence describes it as a Finnish production company in Wikidata, while its own materials clarify that it is a crewing service provider rather than a production company. The brand is active and continues to promote its freelance registry and casting site.
History
Blockbusters Gang is a Finnish crewing service provider in the media industry. According to its own description, it is not a production company; instead, it helps all kinds of media productions — mostly film, TV and commercials — by offering reliable, motivated staff in an easy and risk-free way. The company's service can be customized and consists of staffing, recruiting and/or payroll services. It maintains a permanent team of freelancers called its "Gang," plus a larger database of other industry professionals, and offers agency services to freelance filmmakers. The most common way to work with Blockbusters Gang is to hire freelancers as temporary employees: the worker is on Blockbusters Gang's payroll while working on the client's production under the client's supervision. Blockbusters Gang takes care of all employer responsibilities, allowing producers to focus on finishing the film instead of battling with employment procedures and tax cards. The company states that it aims to perform with top professional quality and to keep the industry growing by constantly looking for newcomer workers, educating its current gang and taking care of the freelancers' well-being. Besides running crew services through the Blockbusters Gang brand, the company offers a variety of casting services via Helsinki Casting. Its service range includes staffing services, recruitment services, and casting & extras services via Helsinki Casting. All services are invoiced all at once, and the company emphasizes that all its freelancers are only one call away. Recruitment services are positioned as a way to outsource the time-consuming process of finding crew. The company notes that recruiting a crew for any film production takes dozens, even hundreds of working hours and is often difficult to combine with other duties that production managers have. By outsourcing recruitment, clients can receive either shortlisted candidates or a wider selection of available employees for all open positions in one comprehensive file, avoid spending time calling each familiar worker individually, avoid scrolling through hundreds of application emails and texts, find newcomers they didn't know beforehand, get out-of-the-box options for more specific job roles, and consult recruiters to brainstorm the line-up of the team. Blockbusters Gang states that it values clients' time, company values and production content, and wants to offer workers who match what clients are looking for. Besides working with industry veterans, it also looks for rookies on a daily basis, meaning it is not stuck with the same list of filmmakers as most companies. It can take care of finding, interviewing and hiring permanent crew members as well as help out with finding additional crew to fill in for sick leaves or otherwise more challenging days with extra employee needs. By outsourcing recruitment, clients ensure that recruitment is done responsibly and that both the project's and job applicant's needs and wishes are met. The company also wants to be freelancer-friendly, making sure workers themselves feel like they're in good hands. Blockbusters Gang is based in Finland and operates primarily in the Finnish market. It is a private company. Public evidence describes it as a Finnish production company in Wikidata, while its own materials clarify that it is a crewing service provider rather than a production company. The brand is active and continues to promote its freelance registry and casting site.
