The Experience!

Choosing to bring your cast and crew to another country to film an episode or a series can be a daunting experience. Getting approval to enter a country and permission to film can be a time consuming and expensive process. Once you've made the journey, employing local production staff and staying within local legal requirements can be a challenge. It can seem easy to find the perfect location online but only local knowledge can fill in the blanks and highlight the good and bad so you really know you've made the right decision.

We can help make this process easier by providing assistance with:

• Location scouting
• Visa administration
• Budgeting in line with local rates
• Travel, including flights, accommodation and on ground transport
• Locations and permits
• Production Management
• Casting
• Drone & Aerial Filming
• Sourcing and employing of local crew and equipment

Testimonials

Andrew - Thank you so much for all your hard work and time to make our week of filming so wonderful. We really had the best time with you and truly hope to do it again.

Merci beaucoup! I just want to take some time to say thank you. I am very happy with how everything went. Everything was well planned, organised and you were always available to help and support the team. So far, in the 4 countries where we filmed, you have been the best "local facilitator"; it felt good and simple 🙂 

I think the segment that we filmed in Australia will be a big success. I can’t wait to see the editing.

Hi Karlene, We really appreciate all the work you did for us.  You’ve been the best, most professional producer/production manager/fixer that we’ve ever worked with on a remote, and we sincerely hope to work with you again!

Please stop by our studio if you ever find yourself in NYC.  Thanks for everything!
