Former Five-O Showrunner launches site for Hollywood pros
Between Gigs: Bridging the Gap Between Hollywood Craftsmanship and Opportunity
The glittering world of Hollywood thrives on vision, but behind every blockbuster and iconic scene is a massive undertaking of meticulous craftsmanship. Yet, for the skilled artisans—the carpenters, makeup artists, hairstylists, and costumers—the path between their talent and high-paying employment can often feel like navigating a labyrinth.
Enter Peter Lenkov, the former Hawaii Five-O showrunner, who is tackling this challenge head-on with an innovative new initiative. Lenkov is launching a groundbreaking website designed to revolutionize how below-the-line professionals connect with the demanding employers of the entertainment industry.
Dubbed Between Gigs, this platform is designed to serve as a dynamic database, connecting skilled craftspeople who are seeking work with the studios and production companies actively looking for specialized talent. It is more than just a job board; it is a curated ecosystem built to match the highly specialized skills of the industry with the urgent needs of major projects.
The mission of Between Gigs is to create a streamlined pipeline, ensuring that the phenomenal talent working behind the scenes is properly recognized and rewarded. By aggregating a pool of skilled workers—including set carpenters, makeup artists, hairstylists, and costumers—the website facilitates a direct and efficient link to clients who need these exact, specialized skills for their next big production.
This initiative addresses a persistent challenge in the entertainment sector: the difficulty in tracking and deploying highly specific, artisanal skills. For craftspeople eager to contribute their expertise to world-class projects, the platform offers a fresh opportunity to move beyond traditional job searching and enter a more direct, opportunity-driven marketplace.
By building this centralized database, Peter Lenkov is not only helping individuals find meaningful work but is also enhancing the efficiency and quality of the production process itself. The result is a system where talent is seamlessly matched with demand, fostering stronger relationships between the people who create the magic and those who bring it to life.
