Shooting here?Skip buildingthe network.

For agencies, brands and production companies who know what they’re making and need it done well in Kerala, Bengaluru, Chennai or Hyderabad. We arrange the crew, kit, locations, casting, transport, vendors and permissions where needed — and run the shoot with you.

Where ourpeople are.

Our strongest networks are in four cities and the hills behind Kochi. Pan-India shoots, we staff from here.

  • Studios, campuses and events. Crew we work with, and shoots and events we’ve produced here.

  • Deep crew and equipment pools, studios, tech campuses and city locations.

  • Large crew and rental networks, coast and city. Gino trained here, at NIFT.

  • Home ground — Gino is based here. Backwaters, beaches, old towns and estates, mostly a few hours apart, and places where local access does the heavy lifting.

  • Home ground too — Sooraj is based here. Tea estates, ghat roads, mist and weather: shoots in the high ranges depend on timing, access and people who know the roads.

  • Travel times are approximate.

What we arrange.

As much or as little as you need. Bring your own director and DOP, or the whole unit — either way, one of us is your person on the ground.
