Local Fixer Services

Here is how this works in practice. We connect global shoots with fixers who solve problems on the ground in Romania, from city filming permits and police liaison to heritage-site access, local crew sourcing and last-minute logistics. Our fixers keep direct relationships with the Romanian Film Centre (CNC), the CNC, and with regional film commissions, city halls and location owners, and they know how to register and structure a shoot so it qualifies for the cash rebates of up to 45 per cent on eligible Romanian spend.

Here is the short of it. We supply fixers fluent in English and Romanian who handle the practical realities of a global shoot: arranging castle and monastery access, setting up crowd-control and road closures, sourcing competitively priced crew, gear and cars, and handling the records an EU-member country needs. Because Romania has serviced global shoots since the 1990s, its fixers carry three decades of accumulated contacts and judgement, allowing a visiting production to move fast, stay compliant and avoid the costly missteps that come from working in an unfamiliar area.

Here is the breakdown. A fixer's value in Romania comes from the country's combination of chance and tangle, and our fixers manage both. Romania gives top-tier locations within a compact area, from the Gothic Bran Castle and the Corvin Castle at Hunedoara to the medieval towns of Sibiu and Sighisoara, the Carpathians, the Palace of the Parliament and the UNESCO Danube Delta. But each comes with its own access process and stakeholders. Romania is an EU member inside the Schengen Area.

Here is what that looks like on the ground. This lets EU crew work without visas, though non-EU staff and drone operations under the Civil Aeronautical Authority still need careful handling. The currency is the Romanian leu rather than the euro, and local knowledge keeps budgets accurate. With Henri Coanda International Airport as the main gateway and a deep, skilled crew base centred on Bucharest, a good fixer turns Romania's depth into a smooth, well-coordinated production from prep through to wrap.
