In 2019 Saint Petersburg Production Team was hired for the organization of a filming in Moscow. Our customer was DHL. We were asked to facilitate the filming a story for the charity program DHL’s got heart. The main complexity was to get all the required film permits from countless russian authorities, as the filming took place inside psychiatric hospitals.
The story was about an employee of DHL who created a great project: a theatre that involves the patients with different dissabilities as actors.
For filming projects that require permits from orphanages, hospitals or other educational or medical institutions – please contact our fixers here. Keep in mind that these permits are very time consuming and require accurate and complex negotiations with the authorities. The estimate processing time is 3-5 weeks.
Our fixers were facilitating the filming of one part of the great project “Rivers above the Canopy” by the great director Pacal Cuissot. A very important story about the way how the trees in the Amazon absorb water from the ground and pump out billion of tons of water vapor a day creating the so called “flying rivers”. We were responsible for the locations scouting, props manufacturing, equipment rental, logistics and other kinds of production support. FilmspbTV is very proud to be part of such a great story – an award winning documentary “Rivers above the Canopy”.
Our fixers were in charge of the creation of a very interesting story that was filmed in Moscow. Rising kids away from your home country is always a challenge. Especially when it comes to modern Russia. A great story about an american family that were trying to live and rise kids abroad.
We facilitated the filming permits, logistics, equipment rental, the DOP and a local crew.
A documentary project, filmed in Kaliningrad, Russia with the help of FilmspbTV, was aired on Qatar TV. Our film crew had complete access to the Amber combine for over a week, capturing every stage of the amber extraction and processing. The crew was even permitted to film inside the treasury, jewellery manufacturing department, and Amber room in Catherine’s palace on the outskirts of Saint Petersburg. This comprehensive coverage of Amber, from the quarry to the souvenir shop and hospitals where it’s used as an antiseptic, resulted in a captivating story. The project was filmed in 2019 and received strict security checks to ensure the crew’s safety.
