    I would love to find out about all local production companies, fixers and film crew.

    Any advise or contacts would be very appreciated.

    Many thanks,

    Julia

    Dear Julia,

    Unfortunately a reliable service company, or fixer, in the Congo is not an easy request… I have investigated this before for other clients and learned that to film in the Congo you need to bring all your support from Kenya… this said, GPN (Global Production Network) represents an excellent company in Kenya and I can assist you…

    Please drop me a line when convenient.

    Best,

    Harry
