Hire a Camera Crew in Orlando

Book one camera operator for simple jobs like a single interview, a short testimonial or a walk-and-talk at a booth. Book a crew when you need lighting, clean sound, two or more cameras, or a director of photography shaping the look, which is common for commercials and convention keynotes. Most Orlando companies on this page can scale from one shooter to a full team, so describe the job and ask what they recommend.

None of the Orlando vendors on this page publish day rates on ProductionHelp, so we don't quote numbers. Price depends on crew size, hours, camera package, travel and editing. Send the same brief to two or three vendors and compare their quotes line by line.

For most public locations, yes. The Orlando Film Commission (Film Orlando) runs one-stop permitting that covers most locations in Orange, Seminole and Osceola counties and the City of Orlando. Most jurisdictions need at least 5 business days to process a permit, Orange County parks need 30 days, and every application needs a certificate of insurance naming the jurisdiction. For parks or state roads, email film@orlando.org.

Theme parks, resorts and convention venues are private property with their own filming rules. Get written approval from the venue before booking a crew, and ask your vendor whether they've worked there before.

JVR Productions says on its profile that it serves both English- and Spanish-speaking markets. For other vendors, ask about language skills when you reach out, since most profiles don't list them.

MediaGeekz, Fusion Studios, Kyle Loftus Studios and Elite Videographer Orlando list drone or aerial work alongside ground camera. Orlando Aerial Videos and Aerial Imaging Services of Central Florida focus on drones. Any commercial drone pilot should hold an FAA Part 107 certificate, so ask to see it.

Listing is free. Submit your company, pick categories such as Camera Operators / Videographers, and add your city, reel and the kinds of shoots you take on.
