Impact Crew will team up with Warner Bros. Discovery and Netflix to improve how productions source and hire crew talent.

“We’re thrilled to be working with two of the most innovative studios in the industry to optimize the way that global productions assemble, hire, and onboard the incredible crew talent who bring stories to life,” Impact Crew co-founder and CEO Tyler Mitchell said in a statement.  

The studios and their productions will gain access to Impact’s global network of over 600,000 below-the-line crew members. This includes more than 10,000 members of diversity organizations, such as ARRAY Crew, The Handy Foundation, ReelWorks, The London Screen Academy, NOVAC, MediaMKRS, MEAA, MAAC and the EICOP.

Working closely with Warner Bros. Discovery and Netflix productions, Impact Crew will build new custom features and reporting tools that are tailored to each studio’s hiring and talent management needs. For instance, Impact Crew’s specialized search engine can filter 600,000 crew network by role, location, association and genre to pinpoint the best candidate for the job.

Executives and department heads can also use Impact’s AvailCheck feature, which creates hiring grids for each job and tracks crew responses in real time. Additionally, they have exclusive access to the AvailCheck PRO service, an internal team dedicated to rapidly sourcing available crew in 24 hours or less, seven days a week.
