film production payroll
ReelWage turns paper timecards, deal memos, and union rate tables into clean payroll runs—so your gaffer gets paid right the first time and your accountant sleeps.
IATSE, Teamsters, and SAG-AFTRA rate tables baked in. Overtime, meal penalties, and pension & health fringes tally themselves on every timecard.
Your 2nd AD approves digital timecards from their phone at wrap. No more chasing crumpled paper in a Manila envelope on Monday.
We file federal and multi-state withholdings, cut year-end forms, and keep your loan-out paperwork audit-ready for every crew member.
Export payroll straight into your line-item budget so your UPM sees actuals against Movie Magic without re-keying a single number.
Location days in three states this month? ReelWage tracks jurisdiction, incentives, and residency so nothing gets flagged later.
Whether it's a six-person commercial unit or a 40-person indie feature, you only pay for the seats you actually staff.
“We ran a 22-day feature across two states and closed payroll in an afternoon. Before ReelWage that was a week of my life every single time.”
“My crew stopped emailing me about paycheck errors. The fringe math is just right now, and that trust is worth more than the subscription.”
“As a one-woman production company, I needed payroll that didn't require a payroll department. This is the first tool that actually fit my shop.”
Simple plans that scale with you.
For commercial and short-form units staffing a handful of crew at a time.
For indie features and series juggling multi-state days and loan-outs.
For production companies running several shoots at once.
