FILM AND LOCATION SERVICES

While the work in front of the camera often gets the accolades, it’s what goes on behind the scenes that makes or breaks a shoot.  Ripple Group’s film services team has the experience and industry knowledge to successfully manage everything that goes on behind the camera.

Ripple can provide full production and location services for film, television, advertising and corporate shoots in any location in the world.  Not only are our crew technically proficient, we have full service logistics capability, including health and safety management, and we are well versed in working in environments with cultural and environmental sensitivities;  all of which is governed by strong project management methodology and practice.

Ripple can assist with:

  • production and location planning;
  • permits and access management;
  • safety and welfare of cast and crew;
  • supplying and sourcing production equipment and facilities;
  • production logistics management including travel and transport, shipping and storage, and location and access.
