Fixer service / Video production
Video production in Madagascar
Cinéroutes is also a production company. Our local crew shoots documentaries, interviews, commercials and institutional films for broadcasters, companies and NGOs, anywhere on the island.
Video production
One team, from story to shoot
For each project we build the crew the film needs, whether that is one camera operator joining your team or a full unit working on its own. Productions from abroad travel lighter with us; organisations in Madagascar hand us their films from the first idea to the last shot.
We can also help develop the story and, if required, edit the footage and deliver the finished film, so you can focus on your message.

Questions
Video production, quick answers
Where do your crew and equipment come from?
Most of our crew members come from the capital, Antananarivo (Tana), and all the equipment comes from Tana.
Do the crew and equipment travel outside Tana?
Yes. They travel with you from Tana to any location on the island, by road or by flight. Their travel days are part of the budget.
How far ahead should we book a crew?
As early as you can. Experienced crew members and equipment are limited in Madagascar, so we reserve them as soon as your dates are confirmed.
Is there electricity on remote locations?
Not everywhere. For remote shoots we plan extra batteries or a generator, so cameras and lights keep running.
Do your crew members speak English?
Yes, most of them do.
