1. Why should Vietnam be chosen as a film shooting location?
- From the sprawling beaches, and majestic mountain ranges, to the pristine forests and vast plains, Vietnam boasts a variety of natural landscapes, creating the perfect backdrop for all kinds of films, from action, and adventure to romance, and historical.
- The Vietnamese government is increasingly opening up and facilitating the development of the film industry, including offering tax incentives, support in obtaining filming permits, and accommodating international film crews.
- Compared to many other filming locations around the world, Vietnam offers competitive pricing for film production services, from location rental, and labor to post-production services. This significantly reduces production costs for film projects.
- Vietnam possesses the distinctive characteristics of a Southeast Asian country, from the lush green rice fields in the North to the winding rivers that flow long in the South, the ethnic communities on the highland mountains, or the bustling streets of a busy Ho Chi Minh City, as well as the world's largest cave system in Quang Binh province. These are geographical features that are hard to find in any other country.
- With a long history, closely associated with two famous wars against the American and French empires in the 19th century, Vietnam is suitable for films with war themes in Southeast Asia.
- As a country with more than 54 ethnic groups, Vietnam is rich in diverse cultures, architecture, and customs. There are still many aspects of Vietnam that the world has yet to explore, making it a treasure trove of content to be captured on film and promoted globally.

3. Why should you choose a Filming Fixer in Vietnam?
Having nearly a decade of experience in video production combined with a background in journalism, I possess a deep understanding of the preparations required for your filming project. It's not just about finding picturesque locations; it's also crucial to engage with the local community to uncover distinctive stories and delve into the culture.
Whatever your team is unable to bring to Vietnam, we can supply, ranging from high-level roles such as a producer, director, production manager, director of photography, and cameraman, to support staff like a camera assistant, production assistant, runner, make-up artist, casting manager, and filming gear. Our group consists of local fixers who are quick to respond, insightful, and adept at handling pressure.
We maintain strong connections with local and governmental authorities across Vietnam, ensuring your filming process is seamless. Notably, our firm is acknowledged by the Foreign Press Centre, Ministry of Foreign Affairs—the body that directly grants press and film permits for all related activities in Vietnam—as a reliable and responsible fixer company. We have a certification letter from the Foreign Press Centre to prove it.
I am familiar with nearly every tourist attraction and filming site nationwide, from the stunning rice terraces in Mu Cang Chai or Sapa in Northwest Vietnam to the mature rice fields in the Red River Delta, from a breathtaking waterfall on the Vietnam-China border to vast red sand dunes in a warm coastal city. I also know numerous artisans and craftsmen dedicated to preserving vanishing trades and skills.
Importantly, I offer the services of not just myself but my entire team of committed local fixers in Vietnam, all for the price of hiring just one fixer—me.
Anyway, it is my utmost honor and joy to showcase the beauty of Vietnam and its people to the global audience.
