About This Service

The Two Person Camera Crew is the most popular booking at Assignment Desk — and for good reason. This crew configuration pairs an experienced Camera Operator or Director of Photography with a dedicated Audio Technician, delivering broadcast-quality video and sound in a single, efficient package. It is the standard setup for corporate interviews, testimonials, news segments, and most field productions.

With a two-person crew, the camera operator focuses entirely on framing, composition, lighting, and camera movement while the audio technician manages wireless microphones, monitors sound levels, and handles boom work when needed. This division of labor produces dramatically better results than a single operator trying to manage both camera and sound simultaneously.

Assignment Desk two-person crews arrive fully equipped with professional cameras, lighting kits, wireless audio systems, and grip gear. No separate equipment rentals are needed. Our crews are W2 employees available in all 24 markets with same-day booking often possible through our staff network.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does a two-person camera crew include?

A two-person crew from Assignment Desk includes a Camera Operator (or Director of Photography) and an Audio Technician. The camera operator handles all visual aspects — camera, lighting, and framing — while the audio tech manages wireless microphones, sound mixing, and monitoring. Both arrive with full professional equipment.

When should I book a two-person crew vs. a one-person crew?

Book a two-person crew whenever audio quality matters — interviews, testimonials, presentations, events, and any production with speaking talent. A single operator can handle visual-only shoots like B-roll and product footage, but dedicated audio support is essential for any content featuring dialogue.

How much does a two-person camera crew cost?

Pricing varies by market and production requirements. Contact Assignment Desk at 312-464-8600 or fill out our booking form for a custom quote. Day rates include both crew members and all of their professional equipment — no hidden rental fees.

Can a two-person crew handle multi-camera setups?

A two-person crew typically operates one camera. For multi-camera productions, additional camera operators can be added to the booking. Our DPs can also set up a locked-off second angle using a second camera body when appropriate for interview setups.

Do two-person crews provide their own equipment?

Yes. Assignment Desk two-person crews arrive with complete equipment packages including broadcast-quality camera, tripod, lighting kit, wireless microphones, audio recorder, and grip gear. No separate equipment rentals are needed — everything is included in the crew booking.
