From continuous craft services to full sit-down hot meals — every service Film Trucks offers is designed around the demands of working production environments. We keep your crew fueled, on schedule, and ready to shoot.
Every service is tailored to your call sheet, crew size, location, and production schedule. No two shoots are the same — neither is any Film Trucks setup.
Continuous table service between meals — the lifeline of any production. Our craft services station runs from pre-call through wrap, keeping your crew energized with snacks, beverages, fruit, and grab-and-go options throughout the shoot day.
Full hot meal service for your entire crew — breakfast, lunch, and dinner depending on your call times. We build custom menus based on your shoot schedule, crew size, and any special dietary requirements on your cast and crew deal memos.
Self-contained mobile kitchen units that bring a full commercial cooking operation to any location. Our trucks are equipped with industrial grills, ovens, stovetops, fryers, and refrigeration — capable of producing hot meals for hundreds of crew from any base camp.
Premium catering for talent, directors, producers, and VIP guests. Separate from crew catering, our star wagon service delivers custom meals directly to trailers and dressing rooms — accommodating any rider requirements with discretion and precision.
Extended-day productions and multi-week shoots require a caterer who can sustain quality over weeks, not just one day. Film Trucks builds repeat-shoot relationships with consistent menus that rotate to avoid fatigue while maintaining crew satisfaction ratings across long shoots.
Modern productions include crew members with a wide range of dietary needs. Our specialty service ensures no one is eating a plain salad while the rest of the crew enjoys a hot buffet — every station includes clearly labeled allergen and dietary information.
From a two-person documentary crew to a 400-person feature film base camp, Film Trucks scales to fit your production's size, budget, and location.
Major and independent feature productions with crews of 100 to 500+. We handle full craft services, three daily hot meals, star wagon service, and multi-week contracts. Union productions and non-union both welcome.
Episodic television, streaming series, reality TV, and documentary series filmed in Texas. We're familiar with the demands of episodic production schedules — consistent quality across an entire season of shooting days.
One-day and multi-day commercial shoots with tight schedules and high expectations. Client is often on set — we deliver quality that reflects well on the production company. Available for same-week bookings with adequate notice.
Music video productions ranging from DIY to major-label shoots. Flexible service structures for smaller crews and budgets, with full-service options for big-budget video productions with large cast, crew, and extras.
Supporting the next generation of Texas filmmakers. Film Trucks offers discounted rates for accredited student film productions from UT Austin, UT San Antonio, Texas State, SMU, and other film programs across the state.
Corporate video production, brand content, training videos, and internal communications shoots. Professional on-set catering elevates the experience for cast, crew, and corporate stakeholders attending the shoot.
Every production is different. Beyond our core services, Film Trucks offers a range of add-ons that can be included in your package or booked separately as production needs arise.
Film Trucks coordinates directly with your unit production manager (UPM) and assistant directors to build a catering plan that fits your shooting schedule, location access, and budget. We understand production — you'll never have to explain why meal penalty rules matter.
