You manage your career.
We manage how you're professionally presented.
Crew Connect WA professionally curates and
manages your profile and CV, giving you a
polished industry presence you can share directly
with productions and industry contacts.
No agent. No commission. No exclusivity.
Most crew are busy working — not building websites, formatting profiles or constantly updating credits. Crew Connect WA professionally presents and manages your profile so it stays current, structured and ready to share.
Crew Connect WA provides professional visibility and industry connections but does not provide visas or work authorisation. Crew are responsible for ensuring they have the appropriate right to work in the country where a production takes place.

Tell us a little about your experience and where you're at in your career.
We'll help you determine whether Pro Crew or Emerging Crew is the right fit.
Yes. Crew Connect WA is non-exclusive, so you are free to be represented or listed elsewhere. Your career information, credits, qualifications and experience are yours to use wherever you choose.
However, the professional profile copy, positioning and curated content created by Crew Connect WA is created as part of the service we provide and remains CCWA intellectual property. It may not be copied, supplied to, reproduced or republished on another commercial crew platform, directory or agency without CCWA's prior written permission.
Other platforms are welcome to create their own profile for you using your career information.

You don't need an agent, manager or booking agent to have a professional industry presence.
Crew Connect WA professionally curates your profile and CV, structures your credits and experience, and verifies the information you provide — giving you a polished professional profile you can share directly with productions and industry contacts.
You manage your career. We manage how you're professionally presented.
No. Crew Connect WA is not an agent or management company. We do not represent crew, negotiate work or take commissions.
What we do is manage your professional profile: we handle the edits, keep it current and present it to productions and industry decision-makers. We also actively promote our members where appropriate, but all engagement, contracting and hiring decisions remain directly between you and the production.
our annual Pro Crew membership includes:
We make sure your professional information stays current, clearly structured and ready to share with productions. Confidential guidance and support are also available throughout your membership.
Once you join, you'll complete a short onboarding form where you can provide your professional information, credits, headshot, contact details and existing CV.
If it's easier, you can simply send us your existing CV and materials and we'll take care of the rest.
Your professionally curated profile and one-page CV will normally be completed within 5 business days.
Because your profile is professionally managed by Crew Connect WA.
We review and update member information to maintain accuracy, consistency and professional presentation across the network. It also means you don't need to spend time formatting your profile or keeping it updated yourself.
Simply send us your new credits, roles or other changes and we'll update your profile as part of your membership — with no additional editing fees.
Yes. If you already have a resume you prefer, simply send it through and we'll include it with your profile listing.
You're also welcome to add it alongside the professionally curated CV, designed by someone with over 20 years of profiling and marketing experience in the industry. The choice is entirely yours, we just wouldn't want you to miss out on having both.
Pro Crew is open to experienced professionals working across film, television and theatre, including both on-set and off-set roles.
This can include:
If your role doesn't fit neatly into one of these areas, you can still apply. If you have professional, paid or credited industry experience, we'll determine the most appropriate way to present your role and experience.
Yes. You can cancel your Pro Crew membership at any time, and your membership will remain active until the end of your current annual membership period.
As considerable professional work goes into curating, designing and setting up your profile and CV from the outset, annual membership fees are non-refundable once your membership has commenced.
The actual cost of professionally creating and managing each member's profile and CV exceeds the annual membership fee. The Pro Crew Program is a service Crew Connect WA provides to support and promote professional crew, rather than a profit-generating membership program.
There are no cancellation fees, and your membership benefits will continue until your current membership period ends.
Crew Connect WA is not an agent or management company. We do not represent you, negotiate your contracts or take a commission from your work.
An agent or manager provides individual representation. They will generally work with a limited client roster so they can actively promote and represent those clients, pursue opportunities on their behalf and, depending on their service, negotiate contracts. This level of representation can involve management fees and/or a percentage of the work they secure for you.
Crew Connect WA works differently.
We professionally curate, present and manage your Crew Connect WA profile and CV, keep your information current, and promote our crew network to productions and industry decision-makers. Where appropriate, we may also put individual members forward when suitable opportunities arise.
You remain completely independent. Productions contact and engage you directly, you negotiate your own terms and contracts, and Crew Connect WA does not take commission from your earnings.
For A$250 per year, Pro Crew is designed to give you a professionally managed industry presence and greater visibility without the cost or commission structure associated with individual representation.
The right agent or manager can be extremely valuable, but representation is an investment, so do your due diligence before committing.
Understand exactly what they will do for you, what fees or commissions apply, how many clients they represent and how actively they will promote you. Where possible, speak with colleagues they already represent and ask whether that representation has resulted in relevant, paid work opportunities.
Be cautious of anyone suggesting that simply knowing a production is coming to your region gives them special access to jobs. Knowing a production is coming does not guarantee anyone work. Productions and Heads of Department ultimately make their own crewing and hiring decisions according to the needs of each project.
Likewise, if someone claims an affiliation, endorsement or special relationship with a government agency, screen organisation, studio or other major industry institution, ask exactly what that relationship is and verify it independently with the organisation concerned.
Industry relationships and strong networks can be extremely valuable, but they are not the same as an official affiliation, endorsement or guarantee of employment.
Choose representation based on what they actually provide, their track record, their reputation and whether their model is right for your career.
Absolutely.
Several of our senior Pro Crew members already have established representation through experienced agents and managers, including interstate and international representation.
Many of these crew work Australia-wide and internationally, and their agents and managers play an important role in actively representing them, promoting their careers and working hard to secure significant national and international opportunities.
They still choose Crew Connect WA because we provide something different — their own professionally curated and managed profile and CV, kept current and ready to share directly with productions, Heads of Department and industry contacts.
Having a Crew Connect WA profile does not interfere with an existing agent or manager relationship. Your professional representation remains entirely your own, and we respect those established relationships.
Whether you are professionally represented or completely independent, Crew Connect WA gives you your own professionally managed profile and CV — and a direct way to present yourself to productions and industry decision-makers.
Crew Connect WA is a Founding Partner of the West Australian Indian Film Council (WAIFC), supporting stronger screen-industry connections between Western Australia and India.
Our role includes helping incoming productions connect with Western Australian crew, industry services, local knowledge and production support, from early development and planning through to production and post-production.
Where required, Crew Connect WA may also be appointed by a production to identify and source suitable crew, providing another pathway for our Pro Crew members to be considered for opportunities.
For our members, the partnership creates an important industry connection as WAIFC develops relationships with Indian filmmakers and productions looking to work in Western Australia.
Being a Crew Connect WA member does not guarantee employment. Final crew selection and engagement always remains with the production, but our role is to ensure Western Australian crew can be identified, professionally presented and considered when those opportunities arise.
