WHAT WE DO

WHY PRODUCTIONS CALL US BACK

On Auckland sets since 2009. No learning curve.

01   Screen work only
Not a generalist guarding firm with a film division. This is the whole business.

02   Discretion comes standard
NDAs, no phones, no photos, no stories. Scripts, sets and talent stay where they should.

03   Experience that is on your job, not just on the website
Sixteen years of Auckland screen work stands behind every booking. New guards are trained and backed on set, never left to guess.

04   Small enough to reach, big enough to trust
You get the director’s direct attention, from a company that has already run major international productions.

WORK WITH US

Looking for guards who can handle a film set.

Night shoots, early calls, long days and a lot of standing in the rain being polite to strangers. If you hold a COA and you’re reliable, we want to hear from you. We train the film-specific part.
