On Location
Talent coordination for German shoots — BFFS-registered actors, Berlin / Munich / Hamburg agent relationships, KSK freelance enrollment, plus reciprocal SAG-AFTRA / Equity arrangements for international productions.
Our talent coordination teams manage day-to-day performer logistics across Studio Babelsberg, Bavaria Filmstadt Geiselgasteig, MMC Köln, Tempelhof Studios, Studio Hamburg, Studio Berlin Adlershof, plus practical location shoots across Berlin Mitte / Kreuzberg / Charlottenburg, Munich Marienplatz / Schwabing, Hamburg Speicherstadt UNESCO 2015, Görlitz Görliwood, and Bavarian Alps.
Here is how this works in practice. We set up with Bundesverband Schauspiel BFFS-registered agents, run KSK Künstlersozialkasse freelance enrollment, document Sozialversicherung 40 percent crew loadings on PAYE bookings, and manage Mehrwertsteuer 19 percent talent-fee invoicing. Hair, makeup, and wardrobe pulls route through Berlin / Munich department-head networks calibrated to ARRI Alexa 35 / 65 / LF / Mini LF on-camera realities and Carl Zeiss Master Anamorphic close-up resolution.
Reciprocal SAG-AFTRA, Equity UK, and ACTRA Canada plan drive global talent contracts on co-productions.
