ABS I'll be back!
Kris, Daniel and Tharsis made accounting a pleasure! We had a tight budget, they worked with us! I'll definitely call on ABS again!

ABS Entertainment Payroll and Production Accounting Services have been providing production companies and entertainment clients with full-service accounting since 1985. Different from some of the other Hollywood payroll companies who only want "large accounts", our company was founded on helping the smaller, independent filmmaker. As such, we're known as the "The Independent Filmmaker's Choice."®

Sarah and Kris were outstanding. I have been working in the film/television industry for 15 years. I finally had the opportunity to run payroll for my crew. I was so impressed with how easy the whole process was. Really impressed with ABS and I look forward to using them again!

ABS Payroll was wonderful to work with! They are organized and communicate extremely well. Once I was put in touch with our ABS representative, I was able to reach her throughout any working day with our questions and concerns. I always received prompt answers. They made the payroll process with SAG-AFTRA very easy. I was pleased to see that the president of the company, Kris King, reached out to me personally regarding my employees when we had to submit injury reports and get them treatment after we wrapped. I always felt like we were in great hands with ABS Payroll and can't recommend the company enough. I will definitely work with ABS on my next film!

My experience with ABS Payroll was fantastic, and I strongly recommend their services. In the fall of 2017 I served as PM on my first narrative feature, and it was my first time working with SAG and a payroll company after years of working on lots of smaller non-union projects. Throughout the project, SAG proved to be far and away the most disorganized, bureaucratic, and unhelpful organization that I have ever encountered. But every step of the way, Jason Alexander and his team at ABS Paryoll went above and beyond to offer some of the best service I have received anywhere. They were ultra-responsive and friendly, and provided an easy-to-use online portal for document sharing and review. As a client with a small payroll to fulfill, I expected many times for them to be dismissive or slow to respond, knowing that they have lots of bigger fish clients to serve. But they made themselves available by phone and email readily, and were friendly and helpful long after I expected them to begin to blow me off. My most sincere thanks to Jason and his team.

My insurance broker recommended Kris King & ABS, and I wasn’t quite sure if I would be willing to try a new payroll company... I then did a little research and discovered they were a subsidiary of BONDIT, a company I was familiar with; and who have a stellar reputation in feature film financing... so I gave it a shot. Well I could not be happier with their better than competitive pricing; along with how easy they made the arduous task of payroll. Tharsis, our paymaster, was meticulous while still being a joy to work with... I highly recommend giving ABS your union and/or non-union entertainment projects!

I'm an independent film producer, often dealing with small budgets and little help. I have been working with ABS for a few years now. They are one of the most reliable, trustworthy, and stress free vendors that I deal with on a regular basis. I definitely recommend talking to them about any payroll needs! I only wish they handled residuals!

ABS were there with us every step of the way. They were prompt in their work, polite, patient. Their professionalism and attention to detail made us feel that we are not only being provided a high-quality service but are also taken care of. I would love to work with them again on many more projects to come.

Jason Alexander was amazing. I would recommend ABS to anyone who needs payroll! A perfect fit for our little production. I will definitely be coming back! Thank you again!
