film crews

Czech crews are professionals who have a long history in the film arena and worked on some of the biggest international productions ever shot outside of Hollywood. From Amadeus to Mission: Impossible to The Chronicles Of Narnia, Czech film crews repeatedly have demonstrated their creativity, care and dedication.

Czech crews are proud filmmakers in their own right, accustomed to getting the best results. Czech professionals are known internationally for their world-class skills and are commonly hired for projects shooting all over the world. Whether your project is big-budget or low-budget, you can feel safe and secure in the Czech Republic, where your production will be carried out efficiently and with the utmost accuracy and professionalism.

The Czech Republic has enough film professionals in all crafts to facilitate several A-list projects shooting at the same time. Czech crews are non-union, they work 12 hours a day, six days a week. Local skills are such that international producers can often arrive with only their director, lead actors and a few department heads. Czech talent makes up the rest of the crew, from production managers and line producers to grips, cameramen and extras.

Because our crews are accustomed to working together, a production here typically runs like a well-oiled machine. Local production-service providers can help you assemble a team of the best, as well as help you find your locations, prepare budgets, find cast and extras, arrange permits and claim your VAT refund.

If you're looking for Czech film professionals for your project, please see our industry directory.
