Pre-Production in Croatia & the Region

We focus on production needs: making first contacts, confirming availability, understanding costs, and ensuring locations and logistics are viable from a production standpoint.

Practical Planning Before the First Shoot Day

1

Strong pre-production lays the groundwork for a smooth and efficient shoot. Our pre-production services support local and international productions filming in Croatia and the surrounding region by handling early coordination, research, and communication — long before cameras roll.


First Contacts & Local Coordination

2

We establish initial contact with all relevant parties involved in your production, including:

  • Local authorities and city administrations

  • Municipalities and public institutions

  • Private property owners

  • Talent and contributors, when required

By handling these early conversations, we help clarify possibilities, limitations, and requirements from the very start — avoiding misunderstandings later in the process.


Location Availability & Permit Research

3

As part of pre-production, we research whether proposed locations are available for filming and under what conditions. This includes checking:

  • Filming windows and scheduling restrictions

  • Local regulations and usage limitations

  • Permit requirements and application timelines

  • Filming fees and associated costs

This process helps productions plan schedules and budgets with realistic expectations.


Logistics & Production Feasibility

During pre-production, we focus on logistical planning and preliminary feasibility checks based on available information, references, and early coordination. This helps identify potential challenges before moving into on-site location scouting.

This stage may include reviewing and planning around factors such as:

  • Access routes and parking possibilities

  • Crew and equipment movement requirements

  • Power availability and technical considerations

  • Safety requirements and local restrictions

  • Overall production feasibility from a planning perspective

Final, on-site verification and visual assessment are handled as part of our Location Scouting services, ensuring each location is fully production-ready before filming.

Pre-Production for Productions of All Sizes

Our pre-production services adapt to the scale of your project — from smaller shoots requiring focused coordination, to larger productions needing structured planning across multiple locations and stakeholders.

We integrate seamlessly into your workflow, offering targeted support or broader coordination depending on your needs.
