We run production management for film, commercials, talk-shows and events in Dubai: scheduling, suppliers, transport, catering coordination and a call sheet people can follow. It is the work nobody sees when it goes well, and the work everybody sees when it does not.
What production management covers
- Schedule: a shooting schedule that respects light, travel time, prayer times and the hours locations are open.
- Suppliers: quotes, negotiation and bookings for kit, studios, transport and catering.
- Paper: permits, location letters, insurance and crew visas, tracked so nothing expires mid-shoot.
- Call sheets: one page per day with who, where, when and who to call.
- Budget: costs tracked against the approved budget, with changes agreed before they are spent.
- Wrap: returns, location hand-backs, supplier sign-off and final paperwork.
Who it is for
Visiting productions that need a local team to run the machine while their own producer stays on the creative. Agencies with a Dubai shoot and no Dubai office. Brands running an event or a studio series. On a small day, production management and producing are often the same person; on a larger job the roles split, and we staff it that way.
What we need from you
Confirmed dates, the city, a headcount, the approved budget, and the name of the person who can approve changes to it. With those five things we can plan; without the last one, every decision waits.
After the shoot
Post-production is part of what we manage: editing, grading and sound to the delivery format you name, whether you edit in-house or want finished files.
Questions
- Is production management the same as producing?
- On a small day it is often the same person. On a larger production the roles split: the producer owns the creative and the budget decisions, the production manager runs the schedule, suppliers and paperwork.
- Do you manage post-production too?
- Yes. Tell us the delivery format and whether you edit in-house or want finished files.
- Can you manage only part of a production?
- Yes. You can book us for the Dubai leg of a larger shoot, or only for permits, locations and logistics.
- What do you need to start planning?
- Confirmed dates, the city, a headcount, the approved budget and one person who can approve changes.
