Production Insights
Most permits are applied for at the local level where filming will take place. Bogota and Medellin have local film commissions that handle permitting. Permits for basic shoots take about 2 weeks and are usually free.
In Colombia you can get such a wide variety of locations plus industry infrastructure at such low costs - you are paying less than half of the cost of shooting in the United States.
Crews are non-union. They’re flexible with overtime and turn around times. Heads of departments all speak fluent English.
All the standard camera, grip and lighting equipment is available locally in Colombia.
