movie crew
Behind-the-camera workers
The people who work behind the scenes to produce a film.
A movie crew includes camera operators, lighting technicians, sound engineers, makeup artists, set designers, and dozens of other specialists—everyone except the actors and director, though broader uses include the entire production team: The movie crew wrapped filming at midnight.
