For international brands, agencies & producers

Production in Dubai & the GCC

Dubai-led production support for campaign stills and films across the region. We scope local crew, suppliers, locations and logistics around the real brief, then agree where Kitavin leads and where an approved local partner is required.

A Dubai base, a project-specific plan

Regional reach
without invented offices

Kitavin Studio is based in Dubai. For a GCC assignment, we begin with the product, creative, deliverables, dates, city and visiting team. Then we price only the services the production needs: a Dubai-led production, local crew and suppliers, location support, art department, sets, talent coordination and stills or film delivery.

Country and city requirements are not interchangeable. Permits, customs, visas, insurance, location access and local contracting are confirmed with the relevant specialist before the quote. We do not advertise offices we do not have or promise approvals before the brief is reviewed.

What regional support can include

One accountable scope

The proposal separates confirmed services, assumptions and local dependencies so an international team can see who handles what.

01

Production lead

Budget, schedule, crew plan, supplier coordination, shoot-day management and the agreed delivery path.

02

Local crew & suppliers

Build the working team around the creative brief, availability, language, equipment and the actual city of production.

03

Locations & movement

Assess access, permits, freight, customs, travel and insurance with the appropriate local partner before they enter the final scope.

04

Creative & set integration

Bring creative direction or set design into the same production, or join an existing agency, photographer or producer in a defined specialist role.
