“Craft services” is the centre of a film set’s social scene. The area is the great equalizer. The quality of the spread can make or break the crew’s experience. A good craft services crew is responsible for the physical and mental well-being of the entire set.
Craft Services is the creative engine for the creative industries, where visual art, food, music, poetry, film, movement and more will intermingle and create transformative experiences.
