No, Not That FPS

Film Pin Society - Enamel Pins

If you’ve spent any amount of time on set, you know that crew culture is a language all its own, and Film Pin Society has absolutely nailed that spirit. Founded in Brooklyn, NY in 2018 by creative director and filmmaker Noah Shulman, their enamel pins are more than just accessories; they’re tiny, wearable badges of honor for anyone who’s spent long days wrangling pelis or chasing focus. As an AC, I’m always looking for ways to add a bit of personality to my kit, and these pins are perfect for slapping on pouches or backpacks.

The variety of designs is a real highlight — from tools of the trade to iconic symbols that anyone in production would instantly recognize. Whether it’s a camera, a lens, a stinger or a mini slate, each pin feels like a thoughtful nod to the daily grind of set life. The build quality is solid, with crisp detail and a sturdy feel that doesn’t come off as flimsy or overly stylized. They’re instantly recognizable to anyone who's spent time behind the lens, and on set, they’ve sparked a few knowing nods and “where’d you get that?” from other crew. It’s a subtle but fun way to show pride in the craft.

What’s also great is how Film Pin Society captures the culture of the industry. Not just the gear, but the attitude and humor that go with it. These aren’t generic film-themed pins; they’re made with a clear love for film production and the people who keep it running. Whether you’re looking to rep your role or find a unique gift for a fellow crew member, these pins hit the mark. It’s definitely worth checking out if you like your kit to say something, even when you’re not rolling.

What nailed it:

• Great build quality

• Vast variety, representing multiple different departments

• Sturdy pin backs
