Fixer in Brazil

We are based in Rio de Janeiro, having an extensive experience on film, video and photo shooting productions, organizing shootings and researches all over Brazil, from the Amazon River to the extreme south, from the urban São Paulo, to the wild Pantanal Matogrossense.

After hearing about your project, we’ll be able to offer you good ideas about how to make it happen, by suggesting you the best locations, cast and crew.

Our team of fixers also offers assistance to foreign journalists and documentary filmmakers who are trying to get a story, connecting them to the local reality, liaising with the director/executive producer, in order to target the project for coverage based on its human stories or the ‘social issues’ that it touches, in the context of the national, local news agenda and local public opinion.
