Entertainment Partners

Entertainment Partners (EP) is the back office infrastructure provider that American film and television productions rely on to hire crew, process payroll, manage budgets, and close out their books. Based in Burbank, California, EP consolidates the financial and workforce operations of a production into a single, cloud-based platform, covering everything from the first hire to the final payment. The core services EP delivers include production payroll processing, production accounting, budgeting, and cost reporting. Rather than managing these functions across spreadsheets or disconnected software, production teams work from one integrated environment with real-time visibility into spending. The platform is entirely paperless and digital, meaning it operates wherever a production happens to be shooting, without creating the manual processing bottlenecks that have long slowed accounting departments. EP serves the full range of entertainment productions. Major studios running multiple concurrent projects get a consolidated view across their entire production slate from a single dashboard. Independent productions get the same depth of industry expertise and service, delivered at the pace that smaller, faster-moving operations require. Feature films, episodic television, documentaries, and independent productions all fall within the scope of what EP's platform is built to handle. As a dedicated back office outsourcing partner for the entertainment industry, EP's operational advantage comes from the depth of integration across hiring, payroll, and financial reporting within one cloud environment. Productions that have historically relied on fragmented tools or outside vendors for different functions can bring all of that work under one platform, cutting the coordination overhead that eats into both budgets and schedules. EP also publishes practical industry resources through its EP NOW Blog and Master Series, giving production finance teams ongoing guidance across compliance, budgeting, and workforce decisions. Production companies looking to outsource or centralize their payroll and accounting operations can get started directly through ep.com. Whether the goal is replacing a manual back office process or scaling financial operations across a full production slate, EP is built to handle the workforce and finance side of production from start to finish.
