To our clients, collaborators, and the broader production community,
I have some news to share, and I want to be transparent about it.
I am stepping back from my role at CAPE Crewsaders, and I am handing the agency over to an exceptional producer and industry veteran, Peta Sacke.
Peta brings 30 years of commercial production experience to this role. She has produced major campaigns for brands including Toyota, Absa, Netflix, OUTsurance, Vodacom, KFC, Telkom, and many more. She has worked alongside the country's leading directors and production houses, and she understands what it takes to run a crew agency with the standards this industry expects.
I am stepping away because I cannot give CAPE Crewsaders the full attention it deserves. The agency and the crew on our roster need someone who can show up completely. Peta is that person.
For all bookings, enquiries, and crew availability, please reach out to Peta directly.

Warm regards,
