Client Success Stories
We recently produced a multinational automotive campaign across three Chinese provinces, coordinating 12 filming days with local talent and 8K RED Komodo setups. Another project involved a documentary series for a European broadcaster, requiring sensitive location access in rural Yunnan—a challenge our fixers resolved seamlessly. Our portfolio includes work for major international brands across various industries, from luxury goods and automotive to technology and tourism.
One particularly challenging project involved coordinating a live broadcast event across five different locations in Shanghai simultaneously, requiring precise timing and technical coordination that demonstrated our team’s capability to handle complex, high-pressure situations. The success of this event led to ongoing partnerships with the client for their annual corporate communications.
