PRODUCTION SERVICES AND CREW

Our Local Production Partner for Shoots in Newcastle, the Hunter Valley & NSW

Production Services for Agencies, Brands & Production Companies


Tommirock provides local production services, crew and equipment for agencies, brands, and production companies shooting in Newcastle, the Hunter Valley, and across NSW. Whether you need a single specialist to fill a gap in your crew, or a full local production team and equipment package to service your shoot from pre-production through to wrap, we work as an extension of your production — not a replacement for it.

Unlike a crew booking agency, we own our own camera, lighting, grip and drone equipment — so when you book the Tommirock crew, you're not coordinating a separate rental house and a separate crew agency. One point of contact, one invoice, one team that already works together.

Why Work With a Local Production Partner

Flying a full crew and equipment package into a regional shoot adds cost, travel days, and risk to your schedule. Working with a local production partner in Newcastle means:

  • Lower logistics cost — no flights, accommodation, or freight for crew and gear already based here
  • Local location knowledge across Newcastle, the Hunter Valley, Lake Macquarie, and Port Stephens
  • A team that already works together on set, rather than freelancers meeting for the first time on the day
  • Faster turnaround for last-minute or short-notice bookings

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you provide full crew, or just individual specialists?

Both. We can slot a single specialist — a drone operator, a gaffer, a camera op, a sound recordist — into your existing crew, or provide a complete local production team for the shoot.

Do you supply equipment, or do we need to arrange rentals separately?

We carry cinema cameras, lenses, lighting, grip, and drone equipment, so in most cases there's no need to book at a separate rental house — we can provide crew and gear in one package

Can you service a production travelling to Newcastle or regional NSW from interstate or overseas?

Yes — this is one of our most common bookings. We act as the local production partner, handling crew, equipment, and location logistics so your visiting team doesn't need to freight gear or fly in a full crew.

Are you insured for commercial production work?

Yes, full public liability and equipment insurance documentation is available on request for your production insurer or agency compliance requirements.

What's the typical turnaround for a booking?

Straightforward single-specialist bookings can often be confirmed within a few days. Full crew and equipment packages for larger shoots are best scoped 1-2 weeks ahead where possible, though we can accommodate short-notice bookings depending on availability.

Do you charge day rates or project rates?

Both, depending on what suits your production — day rates for crew and equipment hire, or a project rate for a scoped production services package.
