How We Work
Three disciplines.
One production.
We're the executive arm of your production — we carry the operation, compliance and liability so your creative team can stay on the creative. The same team that scouts your location clears your permits and crews your shoot; that continuity is why international productions come back.
Full crew, equipment and location management for international productions. We source talent, handle logistics and keep shoots on schedule from first scout to final wrap.
Permits, talent coordination, transport and on-ground support. We navigate local infrastructure so nothing surprises your team on day one.
Legal setup, insurance, customs and regulatory clearance for foreign productions. We protect your project — and your studio's liability — before the first frame rolls.
of the Americas
Direct flights to 90 cities across the Americas — 17 in the US — plus several in Europe. Your crew lands and works day one.
Cash rebate
Film Law 16: cash back on $500K+ in-country spend, plus customs exemptions and single-window permits. We provide the CPA and legal counsel to file it.
Locations
Every backdrop,
one country.
Beaches, deserted islands, mountains, tropical jungle, raging rivers and waterfalls, barracks, former military bases and a modern, cosmopolitan capital with all its barrios and urban niches. Panama's versatility has been proven widely — and it's compact: Caribbean to Pacific in a little over an hour (82 km).
Turquoise water and deserted islands — Bocas del Toro, the Pearl Islands, Pedasí. The look reality and campaign shoots keep coming back for.
A modern skyline with distinct neighborhoods that stand in for metros across the Americas — glass towers to gritty backstreets.
Tropical jungle, mountains, raging rivers and waterfalls — dense wilderness that sits minutes from a five-star base.
The Panama Canal and working deep-water ports — industrial scale and maritime access found in almost no other single country.
The UNESCO old town — cobblestone streets, Spanish-colonial façades and centuries of texture in a few walkable blocks.
Hub of the Americas — direct flights to 90 cities across the Americas (17 in the US) and several in Europe, plus single-window customs. Crew and gear land and work day one.

Panama's privileged position keeps it away from most tropical weather — mainly hurricanes. Its weather oscillates between dry and wet… very wet (that's why they call it the rain-forest). Live conditions across our primary filming regions:
