  • We are currently producing a foreign documentary TV series about cultural beliefs, taboos and laws that dictate how people live and how their nation’s identity is constructed.

    After a first season that was aired this fall on TV5 and that was very well received by the audience, we are currently in development for the second season.

    We are thus looking for a fixer (for each of the country mentioned above) to help us throughout the realization of this project.

    The tasks expected would be divided in three phases :

    1. To guide us into identifying the potential topics (taboos) in your country, that we will direct our research towards to / 1-2 Day(s)
    2. To prepare our shooting abroad (organization wise) and to book the interviewees for that shooting / 6 Days
    3. To accompany our team during the shooting / 5 Days

    Please note that we are seeking a fixer who is not afraid to work on controversial or more sensitive subjects. Please be reassured that we have a strong work ethic and always approach our subjects and participants with respect and discretion.

    If you are interested or can help us find someone, get back to us quickly!

    Hi Sarah!

    Are you keen on shooting your project specifically in Romania?

    Because our company in Bulgaria called Film Fixers Bulgaria can provide an excellent film fixing service! Recently we have worked and organized filming of documentaries in Bulgaria for BBC2, National Geographic and RDF TV.

    Bulgaria has very rich culture and traditions and I am sure here you will be able to find a lot of cultural beliefs and taboo-related topics to film about! Also, as well as Romania, Bulgaria has a big Roma ( gypsy) community that has its own unique cultural background.

    For more information please feel free to contact us at info@filmfixersbulgaria.com!

    Dear Anemone Film’s Team
    Your project sound fascinating!

    To cover cultural beliefs, taboos and laws in Israel, and to reach religious interviewees you would need a professional and most experienced fixer.
    Please contact Micha Israel Kovler @ Hocus Focus Films -www.focusfilms.com

    Please note that I am a religious jew myself, a fact which will help you contact sensitive religious interviewees.

    As you can witness in our testimonials – our latest project was something similar discussing the West Bank settlements with Norwegian Newspaper.

    Attached a pict from that project.
    Warm regards,
    Micha
